TURTLES HAVE ROAMED THE SEAS OF EARTH FOR MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED MILLION YEARS.
TODAY ALL 7 SPECIES ARE ENDANGERED OR THREATENED WITH EXTINCTION
DUE TO THE ACTIONS OF HUMANS.
AN INTERNATIONAL ARMY OF THOUSANDS OF BIOLOGISTS AND VOLUNTEERS COUNTS NESTS
AND PROTECTS HATCHLINGS, TRACKS TURTLES AT SEA WITH SATELLITES, USES DNA TO
ANALYZE POPULATIONS AND DEVELOPS CONSERVATION STRATEGIES TO SAVE THEM FROM DISAPPEARING
FOREVER.
FUNDING
