Turtle Conservancy - IUCN Red List Meeting Madagascar 2007-2008

This film introduces the precarious future of Madagascar's unique turtles and tortoises and their habitats. It is a summary of the IUCN Red List meeting that took place in Madagascar to reclassify all five of the endemic turtles and tortoises: the Spider Tortoise (Pyxis arachnoides), Radiated Tortoise (Astrochelys radiata), Flat-tailed Tortoise (Pyxis planicauda), Ploughshare Tortoise (Astrochelys yniphora), and the Madagascar Big-headed Turtle (Erymnochelys madagascariensis).

Included are interviews with many of the world's leading turtle and tortoise biologists: Peter Pritchard, Jim Juvik, Rick Hudson, Anders Rhodin, and Russell Mittermeier, to name a few.
