Saving the Turtles

We all can do our part to save and conserve turtles. There are many things we all can do. One thing we can all do very easily is to clean up at the beach. Volunteer for beach cleanups and when you are at the beach, make sure all of your trash, especially plastic bags are picked up. One of the many ways sea turtles die is by mistaking plastic bags for food and the plastic, which kills them.

Another thing you can do is to write to your senetor or congressman to fight for the turtles. Tell them how important it is to save our wild life (especially turtles).

A great thing that you can do is adopt a turtle. It makes a great gift for a turtle-loving friend. you can adopt a turtle from the Turtle Society, which keeps abandones turtles, or you can adopt a sea turtle.
