Turtles Swim To Elderly Lady To Have Shells Cleaned

Visitors to a botanical garden were left in shock at an elderly lady’s act of kindness, as she was discovered happily scrubbing the algae off a group of terrapin shells. The wholesome footage Nur Hafiza Ariffin was able to capture in Singapore Botanic Garden shows an elderly bending over, scrubbing a selection of approaching terrapins from a group of around 30. What was most surprising Nur, 31, said, was that the terrapins were more than happy to approach the lady themselves, have their shells scrubbed clean, and swim off afterwards. Nur was not able to ask the lady why she was undertaking such a kind act on July 27, but she hopes that by sharing her video, viewers will understand that there is a reward for kindness to every living thing.
