The Concept
Ever seen a turtle with a neck as long as its shell? Our sculpture celebrates the eastern long-necked turtle (Chelodina longicollis)—a fascinating species known for its snake-like neck and aquatic agility. Designed as a larger-than-life representation, this piece adds character and educational value to any nature playground, wildlife park, or environmental centre.
