It's Turtles All The Way Down
Description
Did you realize the Tennessee Aquarium is home to the largest collection of freshwater turtles at a public institution in North America? Yessiree, we're really fond of our chelonians (read: tortoises and turtles) here, so we invited our resident herp expert to help us shellebrate these amazing reptiles.
(And no, we can't promise those are the last puns you'll encounter during this slightly-longer-than-normal episode.)
Episode Cast
