Who You Gonna Call…

June 7, 2017 By Bear Lake Association of Kalkaska County

The Turtle Busters

When Jo Rahaim and Sue Miller spotted this monster crossing W Bear Lake Rd heading toward the lake, they knew who to call.

 

Rich Vervisch fired up his four-wheeler and headed down the road with a flat-bladed shovel while Sam searched through the nearby lake properties.   He spotted it…

 

Rich scooped it up and placed it tail down in a five-gallon bucket.  It was not a happy camper and tried several times to get out of his jail.  

 


But the story has a happy ending.  It was relocated to a better resort -Mallard Lake –  where it could eat all it wanted and not nibble on the toes of the residents of Bear Lake.
