Zach the Box Turtle

Sorry, I didn’t see you there! My name is Zack, and I am a box turtle. Since I do not like water, you can typically find me around prairies and woodlands. I have been busy around this area collecting data for the monarch project. Monarchs are endangered, so we have been working hard to do our part in helping to raise their numbers before they migrate this fall. It's super cool to be able to see all the other pollinators and insects around this prairie! Anyway, got to go before these caterpillars get away from me. See you later!
