Blandings Turtle 🐢

They grow up so fast. We have four species in our head-starting lab this year. Nearly 1,500 turtles, of eight species have been raised by nearly 200 students in our facility since 2009 in partnership with @usfws, @ugasrel, @mass.wildlife and @massaudubon #bristolaggienrm #turtle #conservation #herpetology #ecology #animals #turtlesofinstagram #growupsofast #wildlifeconservation #partnerships #students #endangeredspecies @BristolAggie #blandingsturtle #woodturtle #boxturtle #Plymouth #redbellycooter (at Bristol County Agricultural High) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Ya7Vyh7Zv/?igshid=pspvqlsazbx0

Starting work on a series of threatened and endangered Midwestern animals. Insects, too. Acrylic on stretched canvas. This is a Blandings Turtle. Endangered because of habitat distraction. There are active breeding programs in Illinois. The temperature that the turtle eggs are incubated determines the sex of the hatchling. Weird science! We desperately have to share this planet with all life! Mother Nature is angry and is fighting back...God bless. #acrylicpainting #endangeredspecies #originalart #blandingsturtle #mothernature (at Chicago metropolitan area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CECZl-ClMlN/?igshid=bc1g7qta9muc
