Program Leader: Sandra Reyes, SOFO Environmental Educator

What are the key differences between turtles and tortoises, both reptiles, but quite different? In this program, Sandra will introduce you to a live representative of each group─an Eastern Box Turtle that lives at SOFO and a special guest, a Russian Tortoise, which is not native to our area. Some people think that all turtles can swim. Do you think so? Come to this program with Sandra and find out.
