Six minute, very cool terrapin music video produced by Dr. Willem Roosenburg�s Research Assistant, Melanie Heckman. The two baby terrapins we are raising in the classroom are part of Dr. Roosenburg's research project. The music video features terrapin hatchlings emerging from their nests at Poplar Island and scrambling for the water. Retiles are not usually considered "cute" animals, but these truly are! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvW64NMA7b0
