 My turtle ran away

My soft shell turtle of 5yrs ran away. I got her when she was just the size of a quarter and it grew to the size of a dinner plate. I kept her in a kiddie pool in the screen room and she would get in and out. Sometimes the screen door would stay open and she would go out, walk around and come right back. This time she took off and never returned back. My friend said that she must be in matting season and must have gone to the canal that is about a block across the road. There’s lots of soft shell turtles in that canal and they all look alike. Hopefully she is having fun. Do you think she’ll come back? thanks, Fredy

Hi Fredy,
I doubt very seriously if your turtle will return. All turtles want to be free. If they are pets, they will try to escape. Hopefully she is happy and safe. But I am sorry you no longer have her.
