A story of two dinosaurs...
Two dinosaurs, small, gentle plant-eaters, were browsing on the leaves of a small bush when one of them suddenly froze in terror.
“Eeeegh! Look what’s just arrived!”
The other one turned round to see what the fuss was all about.
“Aaaagh! A Tyrannosaurus rex! And it’s seen us! We’re dead meat!”

Save the Turtles, Dont let TATAs terminate them. →
Olive RidleyTurtles which have managed to outlive the dinosaurs face the danger of being wiped out from the surface of our planet if we dont care now.
