I remember when I was doing my Multi-Rating, I was taxiing down this hill from the hangar to the runway, when all of a sudden I noticed at the bottom of this hill, and a taxiway intersection, there was this turtle moseying across my taxiway. So I hit the brakes, looked at my instructor and simply said "What the hell are we supposed to do about that?" But he was too busy laughing to even respond. So I told tower that we were holding short for turtle traffic, and watched as this thing when 3/4 of the way across the taxiway, before turning around and going back. Probably one of the most humourous things I've seen in a long time.

Maybe to overcome this difficulty the local planning authority should only allow Korean restaurants near airports Grin
I just can't imagine dealing with a slow moving shelled creature at my local airfield Grin Grin Grin Not unless it was a VW Beetle not firing on all cylinders Grin Grin Grin

Didn't know there was a wildlife refuge beside JFK... seems like a smart place to have one...  Tongue
