Captured on or about 8 April 2018 in a live-trap set for raccoons in Corrales, New Mexico. Where this animal originated is unknown, but it was rather far out of natural range. Released by NM Game & Fish near Redrock, Grant Co., NM on 10 April.

micklemightDescription
Found this bug guy on the side of the road. 80ish pounds, maybe 2 feet front to back. Must have been an escaped pet, or one someone dumped. He seemed healthy, carapace was in good shape and no visible wounds, but his nails were unkempt so he must've been roughing it for a while. Got him to a rehabilitator so he's doing better now :)

These images were posted on facebook Feb 28, 2020 by well known local Syoubri wildlife guide Zeth Wonggor (who I spent a very pleasant week with in 2019, seeing many rare birds but no mammals).
I am only reproducing his images here as I believe this to be very rare record of the species in New Guinea which is worth recording for a larger audience.
