Beating the frost!
A new clutch of snapping turtles emerged from their nest to the delight of the NS Turtle Patrol, roaming through Dartmouth this evening to check on nests expected to hatch in the weeks to come.
Turtle nests are in danger from various causes including development and pollution, putting turtle species at risk. Even with high nest hatchlings, few reach adulthood.
