Update for New Jersey

[edit]

I updated the article a bit for NJ adopting a state reptile, so someone will have to update the map and the chart by year. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:59, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I put in a few new reptiles, but I didn't know where exactly to add some related factoids (or whether to add them at all), so I'm leaving them here in hopes that someone who does know could maybe help.

  • In 2012, CA designated October 15 as "Pacific Leatherback Sea Turtle Conservation Day" to encourage activities beneficial to the wellbeing of leatherback sea turtles (same source as listed for "Leatherback sea turtle").
  • The Kemp's ridley was chosen as TX's state sea turtle because its recovery from near-extinction was testament to the animal's resilience and Texans' hard work (same source as listed for "Kemp's ridley sea turtle).

Thanks! —Ayuskoto (talk) 20:02, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
