Adopting a turtle??? Shall we

**sarah** · 04-08-2006, 06:41 PM

I have had my British chelonia group newsletter and i read a story about a place in italy called Carapax, a unique centre where turtles and tortoises are rescued, housed and some re-introduced to their natural habitat.

Now you can sponsor a turtle for £25 so that they are not sold in markets and kept in horrible conditions and go to Carapax to be cared for.

Now how about clubbing togther and sponsoring a turtle or 2? We will get a adoption certicate with a photograph.

Whay do you think?
