><p><strong>What is the Western Painted Turtle Recovery Program?<\/strong> In the wetlands of B.C.\u2019s Fraser Valley, western painted turtles face many challenges, especially as eggs and tiny hatchlings. With no shortage of hungry predators and no care from their parents once they\u2019ve hatched, only a few young turtles survive to become adults. When you add human activity to the mix, the rate of survival can be so low that a population becomes unsustainable. Since 2012, we\u2019ve been working to improve those odds. In addition to protecting nests, we collect eggs from vulnerable turtle nests, artificially incubate them and head-start new hatchlings before releasing them back into the wild.\u2060<br \/>\n<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ldf4h5x4-577074bf0edb523e0f3793e5c9983e44\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-ldf4h5x4-577074bf0edb523e0f3793e5c9983e44{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-ldf4h5x4-577074bf0edb523e0f3793e5c9983e44 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_video'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div  class='avia-video av-ldf4f5u2-1cd259737a1236080d715e5ce8d44764 avia-video-16-9 av-no-preview-image avia-video-load-always avia-video-html5'  itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Western-Painted-Turtle-Release-2022.mp4'><video class='avia_video'  autoplay playsinline preload=\"auto\" muted controls id='player_16879_173681828_1844352363'><source src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Western-Painted-Turtle-Release-2022.mp4' type='video\/mp4' \/><\/video><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ji2pkf-f1b92c197990d24b872d0a97e75dcc46\">\n#top .flex_column.av-ji2pkf-f1b92c197990d24b872d0a97e75dcc46{\nmargin-top:20px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_column.av-ji2pkf-f1b92c197990d24b872d0a97e75dcc46{\nmargin-top:20px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-ji2pkf-f1b92c197990d24b872d0a97e75dcc46 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_video  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ldf4de39-4f1a5071059306f29c9db8731a55e1fb'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>In 2022, WPC released 181 juvenile western painted turtles from the overwintering tanks located at the facility where WPC works at the Greater Vancouver Zoo. Releasing these turtles to the wild when they are at an age and size to have the best chance of survival will be make a significant impact to the return of the species in BC.<\/p>\n<p>Western painted turtle eggs were rescued, hatched, and reared in a specially designed facility before being returned to suitable habitat in the wild. Beginning with fewer than 20 individuals during the 1st year of the project in 2011, this program has expanded to allow us to release around 200 young each year to bring back painted turtle populations in the Fraser River Valley, BC.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='blog-inner'  class='avia-section
