Turtle Transport Volunteer Training

From spring through fall, turtles must leave the safety of the water to search for mates, nest sites, and seasonal habitat; while on land, they face many dangers, including cars, pets, and mowers. Thankfully, turtles are also resilient and can recover from injuries with proper care. NH Turtle Rescue — whose mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, release, and preserve New Hampshire’s wild turtles — relies on a team of volunteer “turtle transporters” to get ill and injured turtles into their care as quickly as possible, and more helpers are always needed. This volunteer training will cover everything you need to know to join the turtle transport team, including how to safely handle wild turtles, what to keep in your turtle rescue kit, and how it all works. Don’t miss this chance to become a turtle hero!
