Should Iallow a box turtle in the pond?

They will not bother the fish. They are strictly land dwellers and
generally are vegetarians. Ed

If one of these box turtles shows up in the pond, would it be a
problem?

Darn, I was hoping for a frogivore.

We used to have a feral cat roaming around here, but I think the
bullfrog got 'im.

I noticed Lady Bullfrog sitting on the island in my big pond today. She's like
Queen Victoria, always adding new territories to her Empire.
I'm afraid I'm getting rather fond of her and since I have a whole bunch of
taddies being raised in the deck pond where she hasn't visited yet (must be
those palace guards, the water gardening labradors) I just might let her stay.
