What’s cuter than a turtle? A baby one! In this class, we will learn what classifies an animal as a turtle or tortoise and we will learn the differences between them. We will then discover how turtles breed and what their babies look like! This class will focus on the baby turtles that are kept at The Amphibian Foundation, in Atlanta, Georgia. You will meet and get to know some of our favorite baby turtles! Not only will we learn about some super cute animals, we will also learn how to help them in the wild, so that they can reach maturity and start their own families! What could be better than live, baby turtles?!
