‘Grace’ was the oldest female snapping turtle on record in the Ontario highlands, and was known for having just one eye and a distinctive upper shell
Conservationists are mourning the loss of one of Ontario’s oldest snapping turtles, whose remains were recently found in what they say was an unexpected location.
The group says that was unusual because Grace would have had to travel more than 15 kilometres to get there. They say the turtle was “loved and recognized” by people in the region and beyond, but Grace sightings started to dry up early last year after her wintering site on private property was “heavily filled in.”
