Earthwatch's Tracking Sea Turtles in the Bahamas
Story
Where do endangered sea turtles thrive? Help scientists find out and protect these critical habitats.
Impact
Discovering which habitats are most important to these turtles will help researchers and the government create plans that protect the right habitats from development. By taking this rare opportunity to share the water with these ancient creatures, you'll help ensure their futures.
Challenge
The green sea turtle and the hawksbill sea turtle are in trouble. Even though the Bahamian government has made it illegal to catch them in the country's waters, to save these endangered species from further decline, researchers need to ensure their habitats are protected from coastal development and climate change.
