Costa Rica & Sea Turtle Research

Posted by theconservationkid

In July, I had the opportunity to visit Costa Rica. This was not a vacation but a research trip to study sea turtles! In the wild, in the sand, in the heat….. but it was incredible!

One this trip I helped create a sea turtle nesting facility. All eggs collected during this season will be held there away from predators and poachers to hopefully lead to a more successful breeding season.

I also went to tag turtles. What an amazing experience to get out in the wild, in their natural habitat to hold them, tag them, feel their strength!

This was something I will never forget.
