Why Year of the Turtle?
Nearly 50 percent of turtle species face extinction. But it's not too late to save our turtle heritage.
We can work together to protect species and populations in the U.S., which is home to more native turtles than are in any other country.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will work throughout 2011 with Partners in Amphibian and Reptile Conservation and others to raise awareness of the issues surrounding the survival of our turtles.
