The Aliso Creek Turtle Rescue has been together for a few years. For a long time we had yearned for a site that allowed us to report, and let othes report, turtle sightings in the Aliso Creek. After a long search we finally found just the right site!

​Inaturalist is a website designed to allow citizens to report sightings of animals all over the world. We discovered this site in February of 2016 at a science symposium. Our organization started using this site in March of 2016 to record turtle sightings in the Aliso Creek. So far we have recorded a substantial number of turtles in the creek. We want to let you know that you can use this site too! It is a public website designed for anyone, and we would really appreciate it if you got it. This would not only aid in our studies, but would also allow others to learn that California's Aliso Creek is home to various species of turtle. You will have to sign in to the website, as it is somewhat like Instagram or Facebook, in the sense that you will have a profile. To post, search the location that you have seen the turtle. We use the location Sulphur Creek Reservoir, and then scroll down the creek to get a more direct location of where the turtle was seen. To find our profile, type in a.c.t.r. ( which stands for Aliso Creek Turtle Rescue ) in the profile search bar.
Thanks!
