Listen "Spotted Turtle by Danna and Jessie"
Episode Synopsis
The spotted turtle
A slow moving reptile
Enjoying its simple life in whatever pond, bog, or ditch it can find
Basking in the warm sun with spotted turtle friends
A harmless, fascinating and beautiful creature
A smooth black shell
Speckled with hundred of stars
Roaming slowly throughout the world
Longing for a safe place to bask in the sun
But they are disappearing
Slowly but surely
Suffocating on the toxins
Strangled by simple plastics
But it’s not too late
There’s still so much to do
So do your part
And save at least a few
