August is hatching time for Gopher Tortoises and i noticed this little guy in the road and he seemed distressed, but had good body weight . Normally I allow them to go about their business, but in this instance, something was off. I got him out of the road and when I got him home, thinking he may need to be hydrated, I noticed his eyes were closed. I had some ophthalmic Neosporin, so used that and called a rehabber As luck would have it, we are attending a luncheon tomorrow at Naples Botanical Gardens and there is an approved wildlife rehabber minutes away. So hopefully they can help the little guy/ girl.
