Here’s some rare footage of a wild Bog Turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) escaping into his tunnel. They dig these small tunnels to use as hibernacula during the winter, and in the spring, they emerge from among the roots to forage, bask, and mate throughout the fen’s thick tussocks of sedges/grasses and clumps sphagnum moss.

From Bog Turtle researcher, Mike Knoerr, “Meet male 4.2 (aka Jackie Robinson). I have found this big fella more times than any other bog turtle as I often work in his fen and know where he lives (in some willow roots with 2-3 females and sometimes a bullfrog). This spring he and his lady friends were totally MIA from their usual haunts. I eventually found him ~100m away chowing down on a nightcrawler. Today, we found him and his girlfriends back under their willows. The females are just about bu

One small step for these turtles, one bog leap for bog-turtle-kind 🐢 Just in time for “Turtles Need Our Help” day of Wild Turtle Week, ARC Executive Director JJ Apodaca literally gave some at-risk turtles a helping hand. He released 15 bog turtles into a wetland in the Southern Appalachian PARCAs, or Priority Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Areas.

What’s small (reaching a maximum size of 4.5 inches), has a shell, and a distinctive orange patch on each side of its head? A bog turtle! 🐢 This New York State native turtle is the smallest turtle species in North America! It is state listed as endangered and federally listed as threatened. It’s pretty neat that NYS has populations in the wild, but many thanks should be given to DEC, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), conservation partners, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS
