Got turtle eggs. Now what?

Also look up grants programs thru Fish and Wildlife

If a pair of the rare or endangered bog turtle takes up residence, i'll be in business.

We see so much grant money not used and have to be returned. I take over next month in our county

That's wonderful! I'm betting you saved 'em.

If anyone finds Bog Turtles: The Bog Turtle was federally listed as a threatened species in 1997. https://www.fws.gov/northeast/nyfo/es/bogturtle.htm

What to Do if this Species Occurs on your Property or Project Site:
Contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service early in planning for any project or activity that may affect the Bog Turtle or its habitat. See New York Field Office Procedures for Project Reviews and Technical Assistance for instructions. Through the technical assistance or Project Reviews processes of the Endangered Species Act, the Service will provide project-specific recommendations to avoid or minimize adverse effects to listed species.
