The American author Sy Montgomery is an award-winning naturalist and has written over twenty non-fiction books. It tells us what the long-lived primordial beings have to say to us. The illustrations are by Matt Patterson, Diogenes Verlag, Zurich (2025). I would like to single out the chapter “The Turtle Crisis” and would like to quote pages from this book. Just an entertaining side note here: A leading employee of the "Turtle Survival Center" in Charleston (South Carolina/USA) has over 50 turtle tattoos all over his body, 6 of them on one calf alone. Turtles are an integral part of his personality. There they are committed to around 30 particularly endangered species.
