Both freshwater and sea turtles alike are currently being threatened by habitat loss, pollution, the pet trade, and climate change. According to IUCN Red List, more than half of the 300+ turtle and tortoise species are threatened with extinction. Turtles need our help now more than ever. 
​
So, how can you help? Projects that protect and restore habitat, monitor populations, and promote awareness are costly. Your contribution through Conservation Crochet will help maintain these programs and ensure the success of turtles around the world!
