Turtle Conservation Project
Resident of Barra de Santiago, (near the Guatemalen border) Ruben Navarro, learned how to hatch sea turtles from his father. He was taught the basic principles of marine conservation and, as a fisherman, he has demonstrated to his community how important these practices are. In 2021, Ruben hatched 3,000 sea turtle eggs with a mortality rate of less than 1 percent. The surrounding community celebrates the baby hatchlings as they are released into the sea and return to precisely the same beaches each year some 20 years later. Nesting season is from late August – December and hatching is from November – Feb. Each mother turtle lays 100 eggs which will hatch 45 days later Also see this link
