Spaces can change with how you move through them. It's neat to think about how space and movement affect our relationship to our world. https://t.co/hdmd8ncZzR

Sometimes, humans have a tough time understanding each other, let alone other species. But there so many ways to learn and help those very different from ourselves! #WorldTurtleDay is a chance for landlocked ppl of #yeg to learn more about #ocean #wildlife & #conservation https://t.co/YtboutWBlW

[Guardian Australia @GuardianAus]

For #WorldTurtleDay, we'd like to turn your attention back to the Mary river 'punk' turtle. This turtle is just one of many endangered Australian reptile species which have fallen between the conservation cracks. More here: https://t.co/XraVGXzMxs

[CROSSWALKING @GoCrosswalk]

We are all about walking in each others' footsteps as human beings, but it's a wild trip finding out about how other species experience the world as well. Take a look at #WorldTurtleDay, & step into the daily life of this amazing animal! #yeg #conservation #wildlife #scicomm https://t.co/6QV4xZXVfG

[BBC News (UK) @BBCNews]

The Mary river turtle has a green mohawk, breathes through its genitals... and is endangered

Of #Canada, Les McLeod writes that the #VictorianEra was a time "when change was not potential and exhilarating, but actual and profoundly disturbing." Victoria was an interesting queen, & the time she lived in was also that of the #IndustrialRevolution & #Individualism.

[CROSSWALKING @GoCrosswalk]

Happy #VictoriaDay! The Victorian era was an interesting one for #poetry, giving rise to macabre works of #EdgarAllenPoe in #USA & the grisly work of #RobertBrowning in #England.
