from the Wingham Chronicle

Twelve endangered Manning River helmeted turtle eggs found in the wild have been rescued and relocated to the Australian Reptile Park for incubation.

The eggs were found in a nest on banks of the Manning River in January. The nest was immediately protected due to the imminent risk of predation.
