Trial to protect turtles

Foxes are believed to be destroying large numbers of eggs before they hatch, meaning many of the older turtles in our rivers, creeks and billabongs may not effectively reproduce.It leaves the animals facing a troubled future with fears for their survival over the long term.At AlburyCity’s Wonga Wetlands, we’re trialling a simple method of protecting turtle eggs, in the hope that it may provide long-term hope.Our crews have created a wire mesh barrier on a sandbank which is known to be a popular place for turtles to place their eggs.
