Meet Two Turtle Experts & Some Turtles

June 27, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Herpetologists are scientists who study reptiles. Our guests today are turtle rehabilitators. They help turtles who’ve been injured so they can be released back into the wild. Sherwood Island State Park has wild, resident Diamondback Terrapins (DBT) and Snapping Turtles. Join us at the Nature Center.

Pam Meyer is associated with Northeast Partners in Amphibian & Reptile Conservation (northeastparc.org). Erik Koniger was formerly with the NY Dept of Environmental Conservation and has been interested in turtles since boyhood.
