After 30 minutes of an intense mating ritual, these #turtles are exhausted but still sticking together. With their flippers around each other to breathe, it almost looks like they’re dancing. A beautiful moment of #love on Wilson Island, #Australia

I ran into a couple out in the woods who were releasing a turtle they had found injured and had nursed back to health. I thought its coloring was pretty striking. #turtles

Bog #turtles are threatened more than ever since we petitioned for them.
“A bog turtle can't live without its #wetlands habitat. That is what makes a bog turtle a bog turtle. It's in its name. And so if you can't protect the bog, you can't protect the turtle, right?” #NorthCarolina #ESA

It's Turtely Tuesday!! On this Turtely Tuesday I wanna highlight the Indochinese Box Turtle (Cuora galbinifrons) which is a critically endangered species found in China and Vietnam. They are also known as the flowerback box turtle due to their beautiful distinct shell patterns

This is an interesting case to watch, to see how much of this turtle’s shell regrows so it can sufficiently hide inside it and be safe in the wild. The turtle has been energetic from day one, and it really deserves a wild future. Time will tell. Video on fb & insta. #turtlerehab #wildlife #turtles
