Why do turtles bask? 🐢☀️
Basking isn’t just vital for turtles’ health—it’s a tool for conservation.

Tracking basking turtles reveals size classes (adults vs. sub-adults) and shows if populations are stable, declining, or thriving.

Watch these eastern long-necks basking on our #TurtleIslands! 👇 1/4

You will enjoy this

Watch that nest grow and grow with eggs.

Foxes and road mortality devastate our turtle populations.

These sanctuaries have more than 20 years of Science behind them

The turtles love them. So do the water birds too.
