The Turtle Conservancy is delighted to report that we have once again passed our AZA certification!

On April 20th, the Turtle Conservancy attended the AZA Accreditation Commission for our 5-year recertification hearing. This included an AZA accreditation committee of 13 directors, vets, and CEOs from around the country. Many were the heads of prestigious organizations like Monterey Bay Aquarium, WCS, OKC Zoo, and more and we were pleased to share that we passed our certification with a successful report.
