Please help. I have a turtle that is a wild turtle and captured 4 days ago. It was not locally caught so I am unable to release it back to the wild. So, I need advice on how to do my best to care for it. As far as I know, it has not eaten in the 4 days since capture which is causing concern. What steps should be taken to get it to eat? It is currently in a large container with a water bowl, rocks, sticks, leaves, and worms in the bottom. We aren't sure if it has eaten the nightcrawlers. It has also been given strawberries which we are certain it hasn't eaten. What is your advice?
