Turtle Park
- ... that Turtle Park contains concrete sculptures of seven turtle species that are endemic to Missouri?
Created by Tavix (talk). Self-nominated at 02:49, 6 November 2015 (UTC).
Unusual park is succinctly and accurately described. Sources (except for the unavailable offline book, a minor issue) accurately confirm footnoted facts. No NPOV issues or copyvio problems. Long enough. Recent. Good hook. Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 17:10, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
