We love the wetlands and turtles of the Kawarthas and we know you do, too! Spend time at KLT’s largest nature reserve, the Hammer Family Nature Preserve in Lakehurst, to learn more about the turtles that call the Kawarthas home, the threats they face, why wetlands are important to turtles, and, in turn, why turtles are important for wetlands. Lisa Browning will share how the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre works to protect and conserve Ontario’s native turtles and how conservation organizations like Kawartha Land Trust play a role in protecting the habitats that support turtles throughout their life cycles.
Facilitator: Lisa Browning, Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre (OTCC), and an Ambassador Turtle
