Hello everyone,
It is with great pleasure we share amazing news from Nicaragua, one of the most important sites for hawksbill nesting in the eastern Pacific Ocean. This season we began our sixth year of protection at these critical beaches. We share with you the below link where you can learn more about this work…a historic night for the hawksbill project in Estero Padre Ramos, during which a total of 11 hawksbills emerged from the ocean to visit the beaches!!!

The whistle has sounded, the players have taken the field, the 2015 Hawksbill Cup has begun! After winning the first two Cups, Team EPR (Estero Padre Ramos from Nicaragua) lost to Team BJ (Bahia de Jiquilisco from El Salvador) in 2014. Who will take home the trophy this year? How many nests will be protected and hatchlings saved? How many local community members will engage in this intense competition? Check back often to keep up with all the drama!
And remember, while the two teams are competing, we are all ONE team!!!…helping to bring hawksbill turtles back from the brink of extinction.
