Gotta give some air time to turtles! I have an Eastern Box turtle named Mr. Bojangles. He's the quiet one in the house but the most intellectual and observant. He is about 9 years old and he can live up to 100 years but average between 40-50 years. That means Professor Jangles could outlive me....which is why he is in my will.
After reading various care sites online about turtles I came across Steve O'Neill and his project The Earthshine Turtle Tracks Eastern Box Turtle Conservation Group. Below is a link to the amazing things they do tracking and recording turtles.
Turtle Tracks
The neat thing is the involvement he gives children in his projects which is vitally important to the future of these interesting turtles.
The turtle plays a significant part of history especially to Native Americans. The Story of the Turtle by Neebing White Eye is a great example of how animals are symbolic in life.
