Exactly,
I have read that there are lots of head start programs for the diamondback terrapin, which is one of my favorite turtles and if I lived on the east coast I would surely get involved. I'm not sure how effective it is or would be, but it sure couldn't hurt things, the way they are heading toward exstinction. Also, I just had an idea, I'm sure that there are lots of people around the country that have the skills, means, and desire to take care of a small group of hatchlings for a year. Maybe a program were eggs are collected and incubated artificially then hatchlings shipped to people, then after the year they send them back to were the eggs were laid and they are then released. Sounds like a research grant to me, I wish I was in the position or knew someone who could start such a thing, what about you? or anyone else out there reading this?
