Fun Fact: Turtles are Saving Their Species

We just finished watching this episode from PBS about endangered species:

PBS: The Loneliest Animals

Since this was from back in 2008, I wanted to see how the turtles are doing since the video.  From the articles I found, they haven’t had any success yet, but we could find out any minute about this year.

Here’s some articles if you are interesting in reading up on it:
