Big-headed Turtles Hatch at the TSC
September 12, 2022
by Heather Lowe 
Four Big-headed Turtles (Platysternon megacephalum) hatched at the Turtle Survival Center (TSC) in South Carolina in October. The hatching is a marked acheivement for the TSC staff, as the species has historically been difficult to reproduce in captivity.
To celebrate the occasion, we are offering TSA members the opportunity to name one of the four hatchlings!
