Instructor: Matt Gideon
Arkansas is home to many different animal species, and each one contributes to the biodiversity of our beautiful state. We have 17 different species of freshwater and terrestrial turtles in Arkansas. Come learn about the different types of turtles, a bit about their natural history, why they are important for healthy ecosystems, and what you should do if you encounter a turtle in the wild.
