This webinar is for new volunteers and the general public to learn more about turtles in the city.

All eight species of turtles living in Ontario are “at risk” provincially and federally. Join Turtle Protectors co-founders, Carolynne Crawley and Jenny Davis to learn about the threats turtles face and what you can do as a Turtle Protector to reconcile human impacts on turtles and their home. You will learn how to identify the most common turtles living in the city, where to best spot them and why they matter.

Carolynne will guide an interactive walk that will create opportunities for participants to connect deeper with themselves, each other, and with the Earth. Carolynne will share about the foods and medicines growing on the land, Indigenous perspectives of being in a healthy and reciprocal relationship with the Earth, Indigenous history of the park, along with scientific studies that measure the many health benefits of spending time with Nature.
