Please put me in touch with someone who can tell me if Georgia (U.S.A.), has implemented a "conservation of tortoises?"
This is URGENT because they are being virtually slaughtered; and I have a 20 acre farm (by God's good Grace) and need to learn how to
Offer them a home
and how to find out if they are considered endangered in Georgia.
Please help by putting me in touch with some one.
They get smushed like pancakes and no one seems to care.
Their land is being built on and roads kill them, etc.
I only have my school email.

(will not be in class until August 4, 2008.
I teach.
Please help!!!!
