The Conservation Fund has protected an additional 6,000 acres at Sax-Zim Bog in northern Minnesota. 🦉🦅 Sax-Zim Bog is one of the world’s most celebrated birding destinations, bringing economic benefits to surrounding communities. And, its wetlands store carbon, filter water, and provide essential habitat in a region where intact peatlands are increasingly rare. With this latest milestone, more than 42,000 acres in and around the bog have now been safeguarded. Follow for more Conservation Wins.

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

It’s a bog turtle, not a big turtle. When they’re born, bog turtles are the size of a quarter. As adults, they’re only four inches.

Although bog turtles are little, our program to recover them is big. For starters, to find remaining populations, we use machine learning that identifies habitat from aerial photography. We also often look for b

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. Unfortunately, because of their unique characteristics, bog turtles are sought out in the illegal pet trade. An adult bog turtle is worth a few thousand dollars on the black m
