This month has been particularly busy here in Pom Pom…
The reproductive season for green and hawksbill turtles finally started, and we relocated several nests.
Turtle nest relocation is a good conservation strategy and, accordingly to several scientific studies, the relocation can be used to alleviate nests of extreme abiotic conditions to increase hatch success, without altering embryonic development.
Here in Pom Pom, our conservation team works together with guests to preserve and protect sea turtles!
A big thank you to all the people that joined activities with us and sponsor a turtle nest! We will update the pictures of the cute babies once the hatch….?
We hope to see you back soon!
Help us protect these beautiful creatures from poachers!
