Some have said, talking about North American Box Turtles to the Three Counties Tortoise Group is like: "Taking Coal to Newcastle". Perhaps, it should be "Coleman to Tewkesbury"!
The opportunity to meet and see the UK's leading North American Box Turtle breeders, with some of their captive bred babies is a real treat: Location of Talk: Village Hall Fleet Lane Twyning TEWKESBURY Glos. GL20 6FR |

I attended this talk yesterday. Very interesting with great illustrations. It was good to find out more about these beautiful turtles & to actually see some "in the flesh", (a hand cleaning solution, similar to that seen in most national health hospitals was on hand for those members whomb handled the delightful Box Turtles) I really enjoyed the day, thank you!
