(I know, you were thinking, “Why wasn’t it World Turtle Day just last week?“.) The purpose of World Turtle Day, sponsored yearly since 2000 by American Tortoise Rescue, is to bring attention to, and increase knowledge of and respect for, turtles and tortoises, and encourage human action to help them survive and thrive.
It’s celebrated worldwide in a variety of ways, from dressing up as turtles to saving turtles caught on highways, to research activities.
And so it goes
