Here are some great foundations to help our sea turtle friends
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission: The best way to help Sea Turtles and other Imperiled Species survive is to participate with roadside, park or beach cleanups in your area, volunteer your time to educate others and contribute to organizations who administer management, educational and research programs.
Sea turtles are incredible animals that inspire affection and curiosity. But because they live most of their lives at sea, they are shrouded in mystery. Scientists have spent decades trying to unravel the many mysteries of sea turtles’ lives through research and observation which has luckily revealed intriguing facts about sea turtles.
Information About Sea Turtles: Why Care? Much can be learned about the condition of the planet’s environment by looking at sea turtles. They have existed for over 100 million years, and they travel throughout the world’s oceans. Suddenly, however, they are struggling to survive — largely because of things people are doing to the planet’s oceans and beaches. But what does this mean for the human species?It is possible that a world in which sea turtles can not survive may soon become a world in which humans struggle to survive. If, however, we learn from our mistakes and begin changing our behavior, there is still time to save sea turtles from extinction. In the process, we will be saving one of the earth’s most mysterious and time-honored creatures. We might just be saving ourselves too.
