🐢🌎 Happy World Turtle Day! 🌎🐢

Turtles play a vital role in keeping our ecosystems healthy yet seven of Ontario’s eight turtle species are considered at risk.

Help us protect these incredible animals by supporting our Turtle Protection Project! 💚 Proceeds and donations help fund on-the-ground solutions like nest protection and wildlife crossings, making a real difference for turtles in Ontario Parks.
