Bra clasps have proven to be very useful in repairing injured turtle shells.
With the right tools and expertise, it doesn’t take much to repair an injured turtle shell. Wildlife rehabbers glue the broken shells back together and then hold the pieces firmly in place with wire.
Carolina Waterfowl Rescuers in North Carolina use clasps on the end of bras help keep the wires in place. According to Mother Nature Network, the rescue group had the clasps on their wish list, but no one donated any. So they asked on social media for people to send in the clasps from any old bras.
Suddenly, the idea took off. Inundated with more clasps than they could ever use, they’re now just asking for donations!
