Ninety-five baby turtles of a rare species hatched today at the Woodland Park Zoo! Awww. The little amphibians, only as big as a quarter each, will eventually be returned to the wild from whence they were rescued as part of a conservation and recovery project. (The big mean bullfrogs were eating all the exotic baby turtles, making them even more rare.) These specific newly-hatched turtles are not on display at the Zoo, but there are photos here and here. 100% adorable. Just look at his little mouth gaping wide! Happy Halloween to Turtle Boy, by the way, wherever you are in life. more ›
