Animals occasionally find themselves stranded somewhere they shouldn’t be and require assistance from humans to get to safety.
Thus, it always warms my heart to witness folks going above and beyond to assist a creature in need. That happened just now when a man stopped a train to try to save the life of a turtle.
Turkish streetcar driver Serhat Topal works there. While travelling his usual path, he saw an unusual object on the tracks: a turtle.
Serhat said to The Dodo, “It was a turtle trying to cross the rails toward the countryside, but he was stuck.” “I believe he was afraid.”
Subsequently, Serhat took an uncommon action: he halted the train, exited, and made a special effort to assist the turtle.
He hoisted the animal over the fence to safety, preventing it from being ran over by any approaching trains on the tracks.
The turtle appeared healthy, according to Serhat, who then cheerfully left the area.
Although it was the proper thing to do, everyone who has taken a rail ride knows that sometimes people don’t like unexpected delays.
However, because Turkish people are well-known for their compassion for stray animals, they appreciated Serhat’s explanation of the event when he said that the driver was “glad because I assisted.”
Serhat said to The Dodo, “All living things are our friends, and we should approach them with love.” “This should be everyone’s responsibility. I’ve just fulfilled my obligation.
We appreciate this kind person going above and above to assist this turtle! We all agree that it is our responsibility to protect our natural friends.
