Spotting a diamondback terrapin in the wild is rare. But in its newest form, Maryland’s beloved mascot is everywhere!
Watch for Fear the Turtle sculptures at off-campus locations throughout the region. Visit campus to see even more sculptures. Come home again in the fall for arts and athletics activities... save the dates!
