DESCRIPTION:Turtle Bioartifacts and What They Can Teach Us\n\n\n\n\nExamine turtle bioartifacts and learn about turtle biology and ecology.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis hands-on workshop will focus on turtle bioartifacts (natural history objects) commonly found during nature forays. Numerous specimens of shells and skulls will allow us to learn about turtle anatomy and explore their diversity. We will also examine a variety of eggs and dissect gopher tortoise scat. This workshop is recommended for ages 16+. \nThis workshop is part of “Turtle Science 101\,” a 3-part series of monthly programs led by George L. Heinrich. Heinrich is a field biologist and environmental educator specializing in Florida reptiles. \n\nJune 9\, 2022 at 2:00pm: Why Turtles Are Cool\nJuly 8\, 2022 at 10:00am: Turtle Bioartifacts and What They Can Teach Us\nAugust 26\, 2022 at 2:00pm: Turtle Eggs\, Nesting\, and Conservation Concerns\n\nThis program is sponsored by the Friends of Weedon Island.
