Welcome to the Tybee Island Marine Science Center Podcast! We record our episodes on-location at the center, located at 37 Meddin Drive, Tybee Island, Georgia.
In this episode of the Tybee Island Marine Science Center podcast, we are joined by marine educators Meredith Northcott and Jess Boyle to dive into the fascinating world of diamondback terrapins, box turtles, and the gopher tortoise. We meet Zelda, an 18-year-old Eastern box turtle with a unique shell deformity and learn about her story and life at the Science Center. The conversation also highlights the hatchling head start program for diamondback terrapins and the critical conservation efforts to protect these species from road hazards on Highway 80. Additionally, the importance of recognizing and protecting the gopher tortoise, Georgia's state reptile, is discussed. This episode is packed with insights into turtle behavior, habitat, and the collaborative efforts required to ensure their survival and well-being.
