Police officers recovered the reptile in on Friday near the Nozon River. The officers who captured the turtle “knew how to handle the animal with the necessary precautions”, Jean-Marc Ducotterd, president of the turtle centre, told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Wednesday.
The specimen, weighing around three kilograms, was brought to the turtle protection centre in canton Jura.
