WORLD TURTLE WEEKEND

10 am–4 pm

Turtles around the world are threatened with extinction, but they are also some of the most honoured and celebrated creatures on earth. Join the Adopt-A-Pond Wetland Conservation Programme to learn how conservationists are helping to save turtles globally and how you can protect these amazing animals here in Ontario.

Explore the pavilions to discover a diversity of turtle species from all corners of the planet and learn to identify all eight of Ontario’s turtles to win a special prize! At the Americas Wetlands, you will come face to face with a giant turtle mascot, inflatable replicas of Canadian species, a turtle bouncy castle (complimentary access with your $2 donation for a Turtle Wrist Band), face painters and more!
