Meet Sydney, Grace and our live teaching turtles in Kinmount at the library. Fun facts, family fun to help you help our shelled friends.

Learn how to help our shelled friends. Turtles are the most interesting and mystifying animals - they navigate using earth magnetics and the sun, know where they are going, hibernate within 1 metre of the previous years, live for hundreds of years, are able to shed tears, feel through their shells, become male or female …

Turtles have walked the earth for over 120M years, surviving 5 mass extinctions...but now they are in jeaopordy. Learn about turtle biology, and how you can help our shelled friends survive. Meet Sydney and Grace and our live teaching turtles too. Basecamp at the Haliburton Forest and Wildlife Reserve.
