What a wonderful, in depth exploration of turtles, the philosophy of time, and the impacts of both humans on the environment & COVID on society & nature. I enjoyed this much more than Soul of an Octopus, because it felt more focused on conservation & recovery efforts, rather than some questionable (and now outdated) treatment of animals.
You'll gain a new appreciation for turtles & a new level of disappointment in humans. The color photo section was a lovely addition.
