LAST (Latin American Sea Turtles) Association - WIDECAST

News Bulletin N° 2, November 2012

As you all know, WIDECAST in Costa Rica is working towards a better future for the conservation of the Sea Turtles. This year is no different!
Pacuare, Moín and Cahuita sea turtle nesting beaches have been monitored and protected on the Caribbean coast. We are also con-tinuing our work in the Osa Peninsula, Playa Blanca at the Pacific coast, where 2010 we found a foraging area of Green Pacific turtles and Hawksbills in the Dulce Gulf.
This Leatherback season on the Caribbean coast was quite a remar-kable year with a lot of happenings, ups and downs and a lot of vo-lunteers! Find out how many nests were protected! Read more about our Pacuare Project and our Moín Partner-Project!
Our Rescue and Rehabilitation centers in Pacuare and Osa have been ready for use, and not in vain! Find out more about our pa-tients and work that is related with it!
We haven’t just been working with the sea turtles directly. One of our interests is also environmental education, public awareness, improvement of the marine ecosistems and alliances with other sta-keholders, since nature is everybody’s responsibility!
