Hi All- I am proud to say that I will be releasing 21 female DBT’s on June 11 in cooperation with the Chesapeake Bay Field Lab. The plan is to use the ‘living classroom’ (a Skipjack)as a chance to educate some kids while helping the terrapin population at the same time. We will release the turtles approximately 1 mile north of the Drum Point Lighthouse on the Chesapeake Bay, in the immediate vicinity of where I got the eggs. Thanks to everyone who responded to my questions throughout the last year. I plan to continue this venture in larger numbers this year…will keep everyone updated. -Joe Chronowski St. Mary’s, MD
Congratulations, Joe! Please send any pictures of the release for those of us not fortunate enough to witness such releases in person. -Chun — In diamondbackterrapins@y…, “jjchronowski”
