WE. LOVE. TURTLES.

Nova Scotia has 4 species of freshwater turtles. Blanding’s Turtles, Wood Turtles and Snapping Turtles are all federally and provincially listed as ‘species-at-risk.’ Painted Turtles are also being monitored as populations decline. Protecting their habitat is key! 🌎 #conservation
