    The little turtle swimming and exploring in the pond was having the time of his life, he wasn't ready to come out. Will you be making your own little aquascape for the smaller turtles, a place for swimming and not getting wedged under anything? The narrative was relaxing and the quality is so clear. RIP to the other turtle.

    The way Kenan is narrating this video reminds me of the old school Jack Hannah tv show...I’m from Chicago so when I was like 10 years old every Sunday morning on channel 11 they would play all animal stuff like fishing shows and that show Midwest outdoors and steve Irwin and of course Jack Hannah and he used to follow the animal around like this and give you a bunch of knowledge about it.So thanks kenan for bringing me back 25 years and giving me that little memory....

    Your whole place is amazing and I love your passion for your animals. I've always taken trips to south Florida for family reunions and vacations ever since I was a kid and I remember just running around trying to catch turtles, lizards, some snakes, geckos, and these funny green tree frogs that would plop on your window and serenade you at night XD. I love water features and just every time I see clear clean water I have to resist the urge to go for a swim. Would love to know about your process for starting that amazing pond truly a work of art. I love the diversity of flora and the naturalistic approach to filtering the water and the fish are beautiful. One day I hope to do something similar. Love Slinky, your tortoises, turtles, and iguanas. I also imagine you get loads of local resident species living there too and that is just awesome.
