Saturday night Paso Pacífico staff and visiting scientists were rewarded for their good deeds by Mother Nature. They watched the emergence of baby endangered green sea turtles and olive ridley turtles from the sands of Brasilon beach, north of Ostional.
Our dedicated rangers rescued one of the newly hatched green turtles from the claws of a hungry crab with some furious digging into the sand. They spent the evening documenting the numbers of hatchlings from various nests and patrolling neighboring beaches to protect turtles and eggs.
We are pleased with the work of our rangers, and deeply appreciative of everyone who has supported us in our sea turtle conservation efforts.
