Turtles are dying.

:(

 

This is really bad. We have a species of turtle that only lives in our little local river. They have, to date, found about 300 dead or dying turtles, only the rare local ones are affected. I cant imagine there are too many left.

 

Yesterday I found one floundering around in the vegetation of the shoreline, he seemed totally blind. I took him home and a NPW officer came and picked it up.

 

So far they dont seem to have a clue what is going on.  Possibly another species on the way out  :(
