Growing up around precious untouched wetlands has been magical and has affected me in a deep way that has connected me with my environment.

Just to know the decline of turtles has plummeted so severely in the past 20 years really hurts my heart.

As I was a child I would see turtles during nesting season that were so large I now know those turtles were over 100 years old. I don’t get to see large turtles like that anymore. I have the sad and regular experience of picking up what looks like smashed Dinner plates from on the road.

We need to do everything we can to protect these beautiful perfectly evolved creatures
