World Turtle Day

World Turtle Day, celebrated on May 23, was established to draw attention to the plight of these beautiful reptiles, which today are at risk of extinction. They get caught in fishermen's nets, people eat their eggs and meat and make souvenirs from their shells... But turtles deserve respect. They are beautiful and elegant, they have lived on Earth for 110 million years, they survived the dinosaurs... Let's help them so that our children and grandchildren can also meet them in nature.
