The turtle was first found on June 22 and went through emergency surgery at Dewdney Animal Hospital, before being transferred to the Coastal Painted Turtle Project.
The 10-year project began in 2019, although the zoo was releasing turtles before that and has freed around 3,000 of them over the past decade.
The zoo in Langley, B.C., is halfway through the project to collect western painted turtle eggs in the wild and hatch them, to increase their chances of survival when they are released.
The zoo is part of a decade-long project to revive the fortunes of the province's only native freshwater turtle.
