Australian Freshwater Turtle Research Facility

This facility on the Hawkesbury campus is world class and combines indoor aquatic rooms with glasshouse facilities, as well as laboratory facilities that can incubate more than 2000 eggs each season- many of which are from some of Australia's most endangered species.

The facility is always growing. We have recently installed state-of-art quarantine facilities that house one of Australia's most endangered species. We have a range of glasshouses and controlled temperature rooms for maintaining aquatic vertebrates and in 2016, a new outdoor aquatic facility will be constructed on the Hawkesbury campus.
