The Houston Zoo held Earth Day on April 19 and 20. The table assigned to Sea Turtle Restoration Project was always surrounded by children who made sea animal stencils on tiles they could take home. They also signed a scroll petition to send Governor Rick Perry asking him to protect Kemp’s ridley sea turtles in the waters adjacent the Padre Island National Seashore.
The Earth Day sponsors thought the turtle table was best and picked it to receive a $500 check!
