Today we're shellebrating World Turtle Day! This is a day to help people celebrate & protect turtles & tortoises & their disappearing habitats around the world. With few natural predators & competitors for food, the Galápagos tortoise grew over time into the largest in the world https://t.co/ZswQOQymNF
Happy World Turtle Day!
The day was created as a yearly observance to help people celebrate and protect turtles and tortoises and their disappearing habitats around the world as well as to encourage human action to help them survive and thrive.
