Anyone missing a turtle?

Anyone missing a turtle?

🐢 Anyone missing a turtle?



😰 We found this beautiful turtle crossing the highway in front of flying trucks! Saved his life and released him in our garden by the pond...

Anyone here knows the name of it? Is is a water turtle or terrestrial? Should we feed him carrots?
Hope it will survive in our jungle...
