A Walk to Remember

In the early hours of January 31st, 2010, the employees and volunteers of Green Peace Chennai took a walk from Nilangarai to Besant Nagar in pursuit of seeing some turtles. Although we were disappointed for not having spotted any turtles,except for a dead turtle.We were in bliss as we spent the early hours in the morning close to nature. It was then that we realized the difficulties that endangered turtles must face when they come on land to lay their eggs, and therefore decided to start an awareness campaign to bring this issue to attention. So, let’s take this as a challenge and make sure that ‘turtles’ do not become an animal of the ‘past’! We definitely don’t want another round of these wonderful species to be driven to extinction.
