This piece of equipment is used to find a bog turtle. It is one of the rarest turtles in North America. Craig Patterson works with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. He is looking for a bog turtle that is carrying an antenna. Patterson says the creature must be close because sounds from the device are getting louder. More than thirty turtles are living under dirt in these few hectares of protected land. The bog turtle is endangered in the United States. Only several thousand survive. They live in small areas of wetland like this one. Scott Smith has worked with bog turtles for seventeen years. SCOTT SMITH: « This one has had a chronic problem with an ear infection. » This male turtle was first found twelve years ago. The turtle weighs one hundred thirty grams. The radio equipment on his back weighs only seven grams. It helps scientists study his health, behavior and resting places. Smith says bog turtles spend a lot of time digging down in the dirt, opening up little spaces for other animals to use. Julie Slacum works for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. JULI SLACUM: « Part of the issue is loss of the habitat, but part of the issue was people going into the wetlands, taking the turtles and selling them illegally. » Scott Smith says other threats are a slow reproductive process and animals that eat turtle eggs. Land development and changes in waterways have affected the environment of bog turtles. Recently, environmental groups and local governments …

The win gives the Fury its second win on the trot and embarrassed United who played in front of its smallest crowd of the season. When the teams emerged from the break Gold Coast looked the livelier, however the Fury managed to break the deadlock in the 63rd minute through Robbie Fowler.

Gold Coast’s night got worse when the Fury were granted a penalty in the 76th minute after Steve Pantelidis was judged to have handled the ball in the area. Fowler then stepped up to convert, placing his shot neatly to the left of Higgins who dived the wrong way.
