Taking Time For Turtles

The Turtle Monitoring Network is currently keeping an eye on turtle nests. The entire process of turtles coming ashore to lay their eggs, those eggs hatching, and the baby turtles heading back out to sea is important to Belize's ecosystem and marine life. But if conditions are not up to the animals' standard, fewer and fewer nests can be found. And that's why TIDE is assisting by monitoring the nests at the Port Honduras Marine Reserve.
