Hello All,

Today my boyfriend rescued a turtle from the woods in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, the turtle was trying to cross the street . We noticed that his o her turtle shell was broken in several pieces.
We need your help to heal the turtle and provide a good environment so we can reinsert put it back where we found it away from the road. Also if possible we will like to know if it is a known specie and the name of it.
Please help us.
Thanks !3B784FD3-2A68-45EE-8903-6F952C88A0D1.jpeg531C938C-4C9A-41D5-8C2A-C59F8C197217.jpeg

It looks like some sort of mud turtle, but it's hard to say with so much algae on the shell. I'll send an alert to @Markw84 He may recognise it.
