SUMMARY:Diamondback Terrapins: Conservation of an Imperiled Coastal Turtle
DESCRIPTION:Herpetologist George Heinrich will discuss Diamondback Terrapins in Florida. \nLearn about the natural history and conservation of an imperiled estuarine turtle\, the diamondback terrapin. Although terrapins occur in 16 states along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts\, the coastline of Florida represents approximately 20% of their entire range.

This program is recommended for adults and youth ages 10+. Youth should be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the program. \nThis program will feature George L. Heinrich\, a field biologist and environmental educator specializing in Florida reptiles. His company\, Heinrich Ecological Services is based in St. Petersburg\, Florida\, and conducts wildlife surveys and research\, natural history programming\, and nature-based tours. George is currently the Executive Director of the Florida Turtle Conservation Trust. \n>>> REGISTER HERE
