New Terrapins at ORNC

We have some new arrivals at ORNC. Three baby terrapins will be living here until June when they will return to their natural habitat of the Chesapeake Bay. The terrapins are from Kent Island and were hatched by the Terrapin Institute. We have them in our library now since we are running low on space, but you can still get a good view of these tiny turtles. Here are some pictures of the new additions.
