VIDEO: Over the course of several hours, members and some interested passers-by successfully ferried the newly hatched baby turtles into the safety of Williams Lake before they could wander onto the road. This is especially important because snapping turtles are an endangered species

Video: Members of the WLCC, neighbours, friends, and passers by were honoured to attend the births of over 50 snapping turtles, an endangered species, on the night of September 10th at Williams Lake.

The Nova Scotia government is currently considering a proposal to permanently protect a 505-hectare area of Crown Land in the Halifax Backlands wilderness area in Spryfield, pending public consultation!

Happy Earth Day, Williams Lake!
