CALL TO ACTION 1. Sign & Share this petition: https://greens.org.au/campaigns/ban-plastics 2. CALL/EMAIL your State Reps (How to find, What to say, Images to share here: iquitplastics.com/blog/ban-plastics-australia) 3.

One hour of your day to call/write your state reps, LIFETIMES OF HISTORY!!!!! Thank you thank you thank you

The Spiny Soft-Shelled Turtle (Apalone spinifera) is one of Canada's largest, most unusual, and most endangered turtles. Its leathery shell can grow to over 50 ...cm long and it likes warm, muddy or sandy lakes, rivers, and wetlands with sandy banks to bask on and to lay their eggs. Its main range today is in the Carolinian zone of far southern Ontario from around Hamilton and south. It used to be found in the St, Lawrence, Richelieu, and Ottawa Rivers in Quebec, but today is now confined to Lake Champlain and the connecting Pike River. Here are a few photos of this astoundingly biologically rich area in Quebec, filled with so much life. Alas only a smaller fraction of the key wetland area by northern Lake Champlain is protected in an ecological reserve and a Nature Conservancy of Canada reserve. Soft-shelled turtles are threatened by the loss of their sandy shoreline nesting habitat due to dams, channelization, ATV's, invasive plants, and too many people, as well as pollution, poaching, and being injured or killed by the propellers of fast motor boats.

Sa carapace ressemblant à du cuir peut atteindre plus de 50 cm de longueur. Cette tortue aime les lacs chauds boueux ou sableux, et les rivières et les zones humides avec des berges sablonneuses pour se prélasser et pondre ses œufs. Son aire de répartition principale se trouve aujourd'hui dans la zone carolinienne de l'extrême sud de l'Ontario, à partir des environs de Hamilton et au sud. On l'a trouvait autrefois dans les rivières Saint-Laurent, Richelieu et des Outaouais au Québec, mais elle est aujourd'hui confiné au lac Champlain et à la rivière aux Brochets. Voici quelques photos de cette région incroyablement riche biologiquement au Québec, remplie de tant de vie. Hélas, seule une petite partie de cette zone humide clé au nord du lac Champlain est protégée dans une réserve écologique et une réserve de Conservation de la nature Canada. La tortue-molle à épines est menacée par la perte de son habitat de nidification sur le rivage sablonneux en raison des barrages, de la canalisation, des VTT, des plantes envahissantes et du trop grand nombre de personnes, ainsi que de la pollution, du braconnage et des blessures et de la mort causées par les hélices des bateaux à moteur rapides.
