Science & Sea Turtles at Cocos Island, Costa Rica
Turtle Island Restoration Network and PRETOMA along with our team of citizen scientists set out to Cocos Island, Costa Rica to tag and track endangered sea turtles. The team was lucky enough to find Hawksbill Sea Turtle Georgina swimming in the Coral Gardens by the Island. The team put an acoustic and satellite on her and re-released here. The data that Georgina and other sea turtles 'ping' will be used to help created a science-based marine protected swimway.
