Deputy Bryan Bowman, of Florida’s Marion County Sheriff’s Office, was on patrol over the weekend when he encountered this large tortoise moseying along at a very leisurely pace. Normally, this would be no problem at all, of course — but this particular fellow had chosen to do so in the middle of a road.
Bowman reportedly tried to usher the tortoise off the street, but the “grandpa” snapped at him.
Here’s a video the deputy took after that bit of unpleasantness.
