“The purpose of World Turtle Day, May 23, sponsored yearly since 2000 by American Tortoise Rescue, is to bring attention to, and increase knowledge of and respect for, turtles and tortoises, and encourage human action to help them survive and thrive.” – wikipedia.org
More than 250 million years ago, the first sea turtle roamed the Earth. If you want to find out more about its journey, I recommend you visit The Mind Museum and watch “Simula”, a 3D film on natural history made by Filipinos. It is showing at the museum’s Nature’s Hourglass.
