<\/u>Karen heads out to sea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Karen and Brasilia, the two Hawksbill turtles we tagged earlier this month, are getting good press, in part because Hawksbills are more commonly found in the Caribbean than in the Pacific. In fact, Karen is the first Hawksbill ever to be tagged on Nicaragua’s Pacific coast.<\/p>\n

Dos tortugas marinas de la especie Carey, especie muy com\u00fan en el Caribe, asombraron a un par de cient\u00edficos extranjeros por haberlas encontrados en aguas del Pac\u00edfico. Ellos no dejaron pasar la oportunidad para poder conocer sus rumbos marinos, coloc\u00e1ndoles en sus caparazones un transmisor digital.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed se convirtieron en los dos primeros quelonios en salir de las costas del municipio de San Juan del Sur, portando en sus respectivas conchas el dispositivo que permitir\u00e1 a los cient\u00edficos controlar de forma electr\u00f3nica sus movimientos migratorios y d\u00f3nde anidan.<\/p>\n

A una de las tortugas se le bautiz\u00f3 como \u201cBrasilia\u201d, tal como la llamaron decenas de ni\u00f1os, estudiantes universitarios, personal del Refugio de Vida Silvestre La Flor y miembros de la Organizaci\u00f3n Paso Pac\u00edfico.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dos tortugas carey que llegaron a anidar al Refugio de Vida Silvestre La Flor, en San Juan del Sur, entre las 11:00 p.m. del 29 y la madrugada del 30 de junio, tienen ahora un transmisor satelital que permitir\u00e1 conocer las rutas que por el mar har\u00e1n estos quelonios en peligro de extinci\u00f3n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\n
La colocaci\u00f3n de estos transmisores satelitales fue hecha por miembros de la Red de Iniciativa Carey del Pac\u00edfico Oriental (Icapo), en presencia de estudiantes de primaria de El Ostional, organismos defensores de estas especies como Fauna y Flora Internacional y Paso Pac\u00edfico, adem\u00e1s de funcionarios del Ministerio del Ambiente y los Recursos Naturales (Marena) Rivas y del Instituto Nicarag\u00fcense de Turismo.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Rastrearan tortugas carey<\/a>”<\/p>\n

The turtles came with the June 29-30 arribada at the La Flor Wildlife Refuge. The satellites were mounted by representatives from ICAPO<\/a> (the Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Initiative). The schoolchildren from Ostional we included in the process helped pick out the turtles’ names.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
