Today is #WorldTurtleDay! #Turtles have an ancient meaning all over the world. Far from being meek and mild, they are warriors and symbolic of our past, present and fragile future on this planet #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife @palmoildetectives https://palmoildetectives.com/2022/04/24/a-fascinating-history-of-warrior-turtles-from-ancient-myths-warships-and-teenage-mutants/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=Palm+Oil+Detectives&utm_campaign=publer

On this #WorldTurtleDay I honour #TurtleIsland. I have known pleasure across many different places in you. I respect your spirits. I like many of the creatures who call you home, and even some of the people. I believe you will survive the current trauma, will heal and recover from it. Grace and honour to you, Turtle Island.

Today is #WorldTurtleDay! 🐢

Our oceans are home to 7 species of sea turtles — yet 6 are at risk of extinction.

Pollution, marine litter, and habitat loss are putting immense pressure on them.

With the European Ocean Pact, the EU is working towards healthier oceans 💙🌊

Say hello to Fred. I named him b/c I keep seeing him in the same place on trail walks. At least I think it's the same guy. Okay I don't even know if it's a he. But I still call him Fred. Anyway, he looks big, here, but he's actually just a little bigger than a golf ball.

Time to remember the turtle I helped to cross the long long lonesome road in Southafrica for not to be hit by a car. Live long and peacefully!

A couple of common snapping turtles and a quite young and small northern diamondback terrapin (I think) I met earlier this week at Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge in Delaware

Apparently it's #WorldTurtleDay.

We don't get turtles around here as a general rule but I did release a track about space turtles a little while ago..

It even has a video. With turtles, courtesy of a few lovely contributors on Pixabay.

Did you know that sea turtles have featured in several cases at the #ECJ?

⚖️ In 2016, the Court ruled that Greece breached EU law by failing to protect the Caretta caretta turtle and its habitat in Kyparissia Bay.

@ninawillburger @LibertyForward1 the turtle moves! #smallGods #GNUTerryPratchett #WorldTurtleDay

Millions of tons of unintended fish, shellfish and wildlife like marine mammals, turtles and seabirds die in fishing gear meant to catch other species.

Are you still eating fish? 🐟
