About

From Rouge National Urban Park to the Humber River Valley, Toronto is home to 5 native species of turtles. Join us as we take a closer look at the lives of these shelled creatures, and the organizations working to support them. Learn about the important work being done by the Toronto Zoo’s Blandings’ Turtle Headstart program, and the Toronto Protectors/ Mishiikenh Gizhaasowin in local ecosystems, both of which are helping to ensure that these charismatic creatures continue to thrive within the city.
