About This Item

Tina (proxy 3)

Like turtles, travel bugs sometimes travel very slowly from cache to cache.  This little turtle wants you to know that the Western Pond Turtle and the Western Painted Turtle are the two species of turtle indigenous to Oregon. Both species are listed as critical on the state's sensitive species list. You can learn how to help protect Oregon turtles at Oregon Turtles.com. When you log your find of this coin, please share an intersecting fact about turtles: something you read on the web site, a personal experience, or something else you happen to know.

  • After 10 months, Tina traveled 56 miles.  After she was missing a year, I activated a proxy, but it never went anywhere, and I decided it wasn't a very good proxy, so I went and grabbed it,
  • In September 2012, I activated a new proxy that I made from a coin holder.  She traveled for 7 months before she went missing again (April 2013).
  • In June 2015, having been missing for more than two years, I am activating a 3rd proxy.  This proxy looks like a teenage mutant ninja turtle.  He is being released with five of his brothers and sisters, who also needed to be replaced.
