Save the Mary River Turtle!














YOU ARE LOOKING AT A THREATENED MARY RIVER TURTLE!

I think this is quite possibly the coolest turtle in the world! He has his own grass patch on his head and can breathe out of his bum!

The Mary River Turtle is an endangered species which only lives in one river in the whole of Queensland. Unfortunately, the Queensland Government is planning to build the Traveston Crossing Dam on the Mary River that will destroy 36.5 km of the river, flooding the habitat of turtles and many other rare and endangered species.
