The Eastern Box Turtle

What is the Eastern Box Turtle you may ask when you come to this site. Don't worry. I; Turtle Boy; shall give you all the answers. The Eastern Box Turtle is an endangered species of Box Turtles that my class is researching. I have learned a lot about them, and I'm sure you will too. One major reason Eastern Box Turtyles are dying is because when they are crossing roads they have been hit and crushed, just like one a friend of mine found. He named the turtle Dan the Man. Another turtle is Waldo. He has a radio transmitter on his back so scientists can find him and learn how big of a home range the Box Turtles need to survive.
