Lower Township

Joseph Millman Room

Learn about turtles that are native to Cape May County!

These ravishing reptiles elicit awe from students of all grade levels. Students will get a chance to meet a variety of turtles that are native to New Jersey, as well as explore various hands-on turtle artifacts. Your group will dive into topics such as: turtle anatomy, natural history, behaviors, adaptations, life cycles, and more. Students will also learn about our Diamondback Terrapin Conservation Project and get some quality time with live adult terrapins and even some hatchlings. Although students do not touch the live turtles, there are plenty of opportunities to view these amazing animals, as staff walk around with them to ensure a closer look.

This program is best suited for ages 4 and up.
