Ojai Turtle Conservancy Trip
Several SDTTS members were invited to the Turtle Conservancy's Ojai Endangered species center. The Turtle Conservancy is dedicated to protecting the most endangered turtles and tortoises and their habitats worldwide. We invite you to review their web site at www.turtleconservancy.org.
We also learned of their efforts, along with several other conservation groups and zoos to help with the recent find of over 10,000 poached Radiated Tortoises in Madagascar.
