Turtle Egg Rescue In Full Swing - Eight Olive Ridley nests have been rescued and are being protected in the new turtle nursery just north of La Posa lagoon! We are currently running nightly patrols at 11:00 P.M. and 3:00 A.M. Muchas Gracias to Chris Snell of Snell Real Estate, and Greg Whitstock of Marbella Suites, who donated ATVs to our project! We have also received head lamps from Jennifer Rosen, and wood for beach signs from Marko - muchisimos gracias amigos!
We are still in need of funding for gasoline and ATV maintenance this season. If you are interested in sponsoring the project, please contact Paty or Francesca. Donations are accepted at www.todostortugueros.org. If you are interested in volunteering in the field, or want more information on nightly patrols, project performance or our budget, please contact Francesca.
