I really like what you did for those turtles. My aunt in Missouri has a
large water filled sinkhole on her property that has many turtles in it. My
parents visit every year, and always report seeing the turtles laying eggs,
and like you, discover that all the nests have been raided in the night. It
upsets my father somewhat. Based on your report though, at least I have a
suggestion of a method of protecting the nests. I am sure that he can get
my cousins involved in monitoring the progress of the nests. Your method of
protecting the nest was so simple, I was dumbfounded that I hadn't thought
of something similar.
