Wildlife Conservation Opportunity in Costa Rica

This project focuses on protecting the critically endangered Leatherback Turtles. The primary goal is to collect data and support conservation efforts, including relocation of eggs to a hatchery and release of hatchlings.

About the Project

The project works closely with the local community, training former poachers in sea turtle conservation. Together, they conduct nightly and daily beach patrols and operate a hatchery.

Why this Project?

The main threats to sea turtles are caused by humans: egg poaching and hunting nesting turtles contribute to population decline. Global warming and contamination also pose significant threats, resulting in nest and habitat loss due to erosion or entanglement in fishing gear and trash.

Key Responsibilities
  • Data collection
  • Participate in beach patrols
  • Release hatchlings

This opportunity provides valuable experience and skills for those studying environmental science, marine biology, zoology, ecology, or conservation.
