Praise Lord , Miricale !!
One of my DBT was lost back in Aug 2017 , when my pond was just finished construction but fence was not very secure ( first time building it so I was still figuring out ) .
Later I reinforced the fences . But I kept searching for it for two weeks until all hopes were lost . I thought it must have escaped out of my house because the side yard door gap is 2 inches above ground .
2 days ago I found it wandering in my side yard , and I thought it was my other DBT who escaped until both of them showed up .
So for 7 months , it has no access back to the pond , no food , only sprinkles water , temperatures from 110F + to 45F , predictors from ravens to raccoons to coyotes. chances to escape to outside world for 7 months,
But he still made it .
This was when they were small , back in 2016
The larger one is the one lost .
This was tonight .
Notice how wide the other DBT’s growth line. It was 1 inch shorter than the lost one last summer .
