Painted turtles nest on the VINS campus over the summer season.  The tiny little hatchlings come out in early May after overwintering in the nest below the ground.  Watch your step when on campus in May and let a staff member know if you find a tiny creature needing assistance to get back to the river.

This cute soft Turtle Finger Puppet is a lovely gift for you or any turtle fan! Take peek-a-boo fun on the go with the engaging Turtle Finger Puppet that tucks into its shell!
