In February 2015, the Bellinger River Snapping Turtle (Myuchelys georgesi) experienced a mass mortality event in which an unknown disease killed most of the adult population, but spared juveniles. This project works to conserve the remaining Bellinger River Snapping turtles and bring the species back from the brink of extinction.
