i recently visited nyc & went to central park for the 2nd time in my life. it was a beautiful day & a turtle had wandered away from the reservoir & onto the path. a passerby offered the turtle a little piece of mango from his fruit cup - another passerby said calmly “no, you’ll kill it”, the the mango holding passerby said, “really?”, the opposition said “i dunno” - they both walked away.
either way, i came to ask who are you here? offer the turtle a bit of mango for the whimsy of it, or err on the side of caution as to (possibly) not disturb the park turtle’s natural function.
