Le français suit Help us save Grace and her other shelled friends in Haliburton county. All turtles in Haliburton county are at risk due to insufficient wetland protection. Help us ensure this township employs controls to protect our heritage from now and to forever! TO DONATE TO US please do so directly through our go fund me page found here Any donations made on change will only go to promoting the petition directly through change.orgs team. A current Landowner on Gelert Road in Haliburton across from highland street, where Haliburton’s schools are located, is filling in a wetland that is a part of Grace’s territory. Grace is a well know one eyed snapping turtle that is over 100 years old, and likely hibernates in either the area being filled in, or across the road. Filling in this area will kill any turtles or other wildlife that are using this area to overwinter. Not only will filling in this part of the wetland cause environmental damage and possibly kill turtles, it will likely contribute to flooding issues over the adjacent section of road, as the water catchment will be displaced giving nowhere for runoff form rainfall to go. This wetland is zoned as Environmentally Protected but the controls in place to protect it seem limited. This is being posted as a part of the efforts of Turtle Guardians and the Land Between Charity. Help Us save this wetland and the amazing turtles that many in Haliburton know and love. For further information you can call our office at 705-457-1212 -- Aidez-nous à sauver Grace et ses autres amis tortues dans le comté de Haliburton. Toutes les tortues du comté de Haliburton sont à risque en raison d’une protection insuffisante des terres humides. Aidez-nous à faire en sorte que ce canton emploie des contrôles pour protéger notre patrimoine maintenant et pour toujours! POUR NOUS FAIRE UN DON, veuillez le faire directement via notre page Gofundme trouvée ici (en anglais seulement) Tous les dons effectués sur Change.org ne serviront qu’à promouvoir la pétition directement sur Change.org. Un propriétaire foncier sur le chemin Gelert à Haliburton, en face de la rue Highland, où se trouvent les écoles de Haliburton, se rempli une zone humide qui fait partie du territoire où Grace vit. Grace est une tortue serpentine borgne bien connue qui a plus de 100 ans et qui hiberne probablement dans la zone à combler ou de l’autre côté de la route. Le remplissage de cette zone tuera toutes les tortues ou autres animaux sauvages qui utilisent cette zone pour passer l’hiver. Non seulement le remplissage de cette partie de la zone humide causera des dommages environnementaux et tuera peut-être des tortues, mais il contribuera probablement aux problèmes d’inondation sur la section adjacente de la route, car le bassin versant sera déplacé, ne laissant nulle part le ruissellement pour que les pluies aillent. Cette zone humide est zonée comme environnement protégé mais les contrôles en place pour la protéger semblent limités. Ceci est publié dans le cadre des efforts de Turtle Guardians et de Land Between Charity. Aidez-nous à sauver cette zone humide et les incroyables tortues que beaucoup de Haliburton connaissent et aiment.
