A male turtle named Hank managed to leave his current home in the Mahoney Valley Animal Hospital in Leighton Pennsylvania about 13 days ago was recently seen at a property in West Penn Township.
Hank managed to escape his outdoor enclosure for the third time due to a hole in the fence when Hank was returned home to his owner Mike Nelson who is happy that his pet has returned home at last.
Hospital officials plan to have a GPS on Hank to make sure that Hank will be watched very closely from now on.

I am in agreement with you that the fence needs to be fixed.

Hank just wants to live his life and get on with it instead of being in an enclosure,

Hank's owner is relieved that his turtle is back home with him.

I agree with you that a tracking device on Hank is a good idea.

I'm glad Hank was found. I hope they fix the hole in the fence.

I hope so as well but I doubt it since the animal hospital plans to place a tracking device on the turtle.
