Over 30 baby Snapping Turtles were released to the ground, very near the water, to allow the juveniles to find their own way down to the water safely, and without predation. While this species is not endangered, it is threatened.
There are 3 other nests around the pond, so we will be hoping for further hatchings and releases throughout the remainder of the late summer and into autumn.
