On November 1 from 3:30 to 4:30, the Marion Natural History Museum will welcome Deb Ewing to speak about our local terrapins. Deb oversees a diamondback terrapin conservation area in Marion and has partnered with the New England Coastal Wildlife alliance to protect Diamondback Terrapins. She will be sharing information regarding the efforts she and others have made to protect this threatened species. She has created a “turtle garden” on conservation land in Marion and joined forces with NECWA, New England Coastal Wildlife Alliance to conduct population studies, locate nests and to install protection equipment to protect these important animals from predators.
