The Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre is calling for donations to help care for eight injured turtles over the winter — the highest they've ever had to care for during the season — and the centre says flooding in the province is partly to blame. "Without a treatment centre like Wildlife Haven, there is just no other option for these turtles," executive director Zoe Nakata told CBC on Sunday. "Year after year, we're seeing more turtle patients at Wildlife Haven." © Joanne Roberts/CBC Carter Phillips is the hospital supervisor at the Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre in Île-des-Chênes, Man. © Joanne Roberts/CBC A turtle heals in a tank at the Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre in Île-des-Chênes, Man.
