Turtle Survival Alliance
The Turtle Survival Alliance (TSA) is a global organization dedicated to the conservation of turtles and tortoises. Founded in 2001, it focuses on protecting endangered species through habitat preservation, breeding programs, and public education. The TSA collaborates with various partners, including zoos, aquariums, and conservation groups, to implement effective conservation strategies.
One of the TSA's key initiatives is the Turtle Conservation Program, which aims to address the threats faced by turtles, such as habitat loss and illegal trade. The organization also conducts research and supports field projects to ensure the survival of species like the Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle and the Pangshura Turtle.
