Description
The extra riverbud you planted has helped, but it's not enough. Some of the local wildlife are consuming the riverbud before they mature. The more riverbud that is eaten, the less we have for our own needs. The largest group of young riverbud consumers are the turtles. If the riverbud becomes a threatened species, we'll need to regulate harvesting it. Instead, go thin the number of the turtles in the area. Do that and I'll teach you everything I know about riverbud.
