I hope you moved him to the side of the rode. I always stop and help them across. They have enough problems to deal with as it is without some "critter-hitter" making turtle pancakes.
The Caymans, the only place in the world where eating turtle is legally permitted. They have big turtle farms there, and only farm turtles can be eaten. Turtles are the other white meat in the Cayman Islands.
You can harvest them in Missouri..
