The Gulf Coast Turtle and Tortoise Society is actively working to
fulfill the following goals: Provide a turtle and tortoise rescue and
rehabilitation program in cooperation with other wildlife rescue
organizations and turtle and tortoise societies. Educate ourselves and
the public, through public presentations and meetings, about all
aspects of turtle and tortoise care, natural history, and
conservation. Disseminate the best available information regarding the
proper captive husbandry of turtles and tortoises. Disseminate
information concerning the plight of wild turtles and tortoises and
effective efforts to help them. Provide an adoption service to our
members for captive turtles and tortoises that need new homes.
