Helping Turtle Friends

In the spring and summer, turtles are on the move! Be on the lookout for them and be ready if they are in danger. Assist them by moving them in the direction they are going, out of harm’s way. Learn more about turtle safety with this activity sheet from Kind News. The activity is part of our animal safety program for scouts and schools. Learn more here.
