Lake Turtles
US Highway 27 is a four-lane highway that was built directly across
a 3/4-mile portion of northwest Lake Jackson in northwestern Florida
isolating part of the lake to the west now known as Little Lake
Jackson. US Highway 27 is a virtually impassable barrier to turtles
and other wildlife with 21,500 vehicles traveling along it each day.
The road mortality and attempted crossings, especially of turtles,
is higher than has been documented anywhere else in the world.
