Estoy seguro de que mucha gente ha notado que ya no permitan que los carros pasen a la playa (una dificultad para nosotros cuando estamos tratando de llevar a grandes grupos de niños a los campamentos para aprender sobre la conservación). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Cuando la gente escucha del desarrollo es que va a dañar a las tortugas que anidan en la playa, esto no es necesariamente el caso (Playa Nuevo Vallarta tiene turismo de alta densidad pero también tiene alta densidad de anidación de tortuga). Sin embargo, hay más de una pocas preocupaciones acerca del desarrollo. A continuación son unas cuantas fotos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;As part of the coastal development "Rivera Nayarit" playa El Naranjo is in the first stage of being developed. I am sure that many people have noticed that cars are now not allowed free access to the beach (a difficulty for us when we are trying to bring large groups of children to the camp to learn about conservation). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;The initial thought when people hear of the development is that it will be detrimental to the nesting turtles, this is not necessarily the case (Playa Nuevo Vallarta has high density tourism and high density nesting!). However there are more than a few worries about the development. Bellow are a few photos.&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393660228785244194" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/StohZrfliCI/AAAAAAAAA_0/HTCfPsf4Wi8/s400/100_2885.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393659824058413970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/StohCHxMM5I/AAAAAAAAA_s/qsLH_i6ZIX4/s400/100_2884.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393657546015023490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/Stoe9hZUoYI/AAAAAAAAA_k/duFVuqBISUk/s400/100_3001.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Arriba: Ya los cocodrilos no pueden pasar por el arroyo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5944226747251809502-5088700609632896132?l=ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com/feeds/5088700609632896132/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5944226747251809502&amp;postID=5088700609632896132' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5944226747251809502/posts/default/5088700609632896132'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5944226747251809502/posts/default/5088700609632896132'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com/2009/10/que-bonita-playa.html' title='¡Que bonita Playa!'/><author><name>Catherine Hart</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13062933404569352400</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11735794535155306652'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/StodVWPDmBI/AAAAAAAAA_c/-lNErHG_1Qo/s72-c/100_2945.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944226747251809502.post-6431880028515658389</id><published>2009-10-08T09:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-08T09:40:11.965-07:00</updated><title type='text'>¿Dos cabezas piensan mejor que una?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/Ss4Uqh-_AoI/AAAAAAAAA_M/3Uz6JSMKvp0/s1600-h/100_2940.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390268524918669954" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/Ss4Uqh-_AoI/AAAAAAAAA_M/3Uz6JSMKvp0/s400/100_2940.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Quiero mostrarles las malformaciones más interesantes del mes!

Mediante las marcas metálicas, las tortugas se pueden identificar como individuos, lo que permitirá descubrir cuantas tortugas hembras anidan en la playa de El Naranjo. Además, si la tortuga es capturada o anida en otra playa la información de la marcaje permitirá a los biólogos a identificar donde fue mercado y así podemos aprender sobre los movimientos de nuestras tortugas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;We have just started tagging our nesting female turtles on El Naranjo beach.

México esta previlejado también a tener una especie de tortuga marina endémica que se llama la Tortuga Lora lo cual sólo ovoposita en los estados de Tamaulipas y Veracruz. La única especie que no se encuentra en México es la tortuga Kikila (Chelonia depressa) o Australian Flatback Turtle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Las tortugas marinas del Mexico son las siguientes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Tortuga Lora; Tortuga Golfina; Tortuga Carey; Tortuga Caguama; Tortuga Verde; Tortuga Prieta (subpoblación de la verde); Tortuga Laúd.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Las tortugas marinas de México hacen largas migraciones, pero siempre regresan a su país natal, ya que solo desovan en sus playas ancestrales, donde los antiguos mexicanos paragonaban a las tortugas con divinidades dibujándolas junto a diosas como Xochiquetzal (Diosa de las flores). También eran relacionados míticamente con el origen del pueblo Tolteca quienes creían que sus ancestros cruzaron el mar para llegar al continente americano montados sobre los caparazones de tortugas marinas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Las tortugas marinas son un ejemplo del increíble biodiversidad con cuenta México, es de gran importancia conocer el país en que vivimos, sus culturas, y su flora y fauna para entonces poder apreciar el valor tan grande con el que contamos.

Hoy hemos tenido la suerte de liberar 130 tortugas en la playa de Rincón de Guayabitos. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Usted puede haber oído que esta temporada estamos tratando de modificar nuestras técnicas de incubación para reducir la cantidad de interferencia humana. Hasta ahora tenemos 102 nidos en Cajas de Unicel, 30 nidos en el Corral de incubacion y 7 nidos "in situ" o naturales. A continuación voy a tratar de explicar la diferencia entre cada tipo de incubación: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cajas de Unicel:&lt;/strong&gt; este tipo de incubación es el menos natural de los 3 métodos. Cada nido se recoge de la playa después de la puesta y los huevos se ponen dentro de una caja de unicel y luego se cubre con arena. Beneficios de este tipo de incubación incluyen: la capacidad de mover los nidos fuera de peligro (huracanes, mareas, etc) y mantenerlos en un entorno seguro (Caseta de incubación) donde no pueden ser robados. En los meses de verano (junio-octubre) las cajas de unicel producen altas tasas de eclosión. Las desventajas incluyen: costo de las cajas, la producción de una población con mas machos que hembras, una baja tasa de eclosión durante los meses más fríos (octubre-diciembre), y a veces las crías eclosionan "prematuro" y exigen un período más largo entre salir del huevo y ser liberado. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377834048089334898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHnkuFdpHI/AAAAAAAAA88/ppbS58yd95Q/s400/100_1171.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Corral de Incubación:&lt;/strong&gt; El método más común utilizado por los campamentos tortugueros. Consiste en el traslado de cada nido a una área de playa cercada. El nido está plantado en la arena a la profundidad a la que puso la tortuga. Las ventajas incluyen: nidos reciben protección de ser robados sin manipulación intensa, las temperaturas son controladas por la temperatura de la playa y por lo tanto no deben producir una población masculino. Desventajas: altos niveles de depredación por parte de los insectos y los cangrejos comparada con los nidos incubados en Cajas de unicel, el nido se pueden perder en condiciones climáticas extremas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377832369398173218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHmDAeTTiI/AAAAAAAAA8s/ETXY-M8I7AY/s400/100_2663.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"In situ" o naturales:&lt;/strong&gt; El Nido permanece en el lugar en donde la deposito la tortuga, sin ser reubicada. Este es el método ideal para la incubación de los nidos. Debemos asumir que la tortuga hembra después de miles de años de supervivencia sabe lo que son las mejores condiciones para la incubación de los huevos. Lamentablemente, este método se utiliza muy poco como metodo para proteger los nidos porque toda la playa debe ser monitoreado las 24 horas del día.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377835118024604146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHoi_56OfI/AAAAAAAAA9E/c64U5-N9LRw/s400/100_2632.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;We are really getting into the turtle season now, with nests hatching daily and new nests being layed every night. Today we were fortunate enough to release 130 turtles on the beach of Rincon de Guayabitos. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;You may have heard that this season we are trying to modify our incubation techniques to reduce the amount of human interference with each nest. So far we have 102 nests in polystyrene boxes, 30 nests in nursery pen and 7 nests “in Situ”. Below I will try to explain the difference between each incubation type:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Polystyrene boxes:&lt;/strong&gt; this type of incubation is the least natural of the 3 methods of incubation. Each nest is collected from the beach after laying and the eggs are arranged inside a box and then covered with sand. Benefits of this incubation type include: the ability to move nests away from danger (hurricanes, tides etc) and to keep them in a secure (locked) location so that they cannot be stolen. In the warmer months (June-October) boxes produce high hatching rates. Disadvantages include: cost of boxes, production of male biased population, low percentage hatching rate during cooler months (October-December), and hatchling often appear “premature” and require a longer period between hatching and being released. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377835809336730178" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHpLPPkIkI/AAAAAAAAA9M/69eyHX2x0_c/s400/100_2587.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nursery:&lt;/strong&gt; The most common method used by turtle protection camps worldwide. Involves the collection and relocation of each nest after laying to a fenced off area of beach. The nest is planted in the sand at the depth at which the turtle laid it. Advantages include: nest receive protection from poaching without intense handling, temperatures are controlled by the temperature of the beach and so should not produce male biased populations.

This is the ideal method for incubating nests. We must assume that the female turtle after thousands of years of survival knows what the best conditions are for incubating eggs. Unfortunately this method is rarely used as to protect the nests from poaching the entire beach needs to be monitored 24 hours a day. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377837482354001218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHqsnt9xUI/AAAAAAAAA9U/pgb4jmbRrb8/s400/playa+el+naranjo.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;Saludos Catherine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5944226747251809502-1620960354342297115?l=ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com/feeds/1620960354342297115/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5944226747251809502&amp;postID=1620960354342297115' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5944226747251809502/posts/default/1620960354342297115'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5944226747251809502/posts/default/1620960354342297115'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ecologistasdenayarit.blogspot.com/2009/09/buenas-noches-estamos-en-la-mitad-de-la.html' title='Métodos de Incubación'/><author><name>Catherine Hart</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13062933404569352400</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='11735794535155306652'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SqHnkuFdpHI/AAAAAAAAA88/ppbS58yd95Q/s72-c/100_1171.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944226747251809502.post-460515679990545400</id><published>2009-08-26T14:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-26T16:04:26.417-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Adios, nido # 2!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Buenos tardes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;La noche del lunes, los voluntarios encontraron 11 nidos de tortuga golfina en la playa de el Naranjo, Nayarit, es un nuevo record para nosotros. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Ayer liberaron 57 tortuguitas golfinas en la playa de Rincón de Guayabitos con los voluntarios ingleses y turistas Mexicanos.

Este maquina va limpiando la playa juntando todo el plástico, cristal etc. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Unas personas han expresado preocupación sobre el efecto negativo del uso de este maquina en la playa de Rincón de Guayabitos para las tortugas. En mi opinión personal, la basura que entra al mar desde esta playa turística tiene un efecto mucho más fuerte que el uso del maquina, no solo para las tortugas pero para todo la fauna marina. Este temporada solo hemos encontrados 10 nidos de tortuga marina en la playa de Rincón de Guayabitos, los cuales están incubadas en cajas de unicel. Si hubo un nido “in situ” en la playa la maquina no puede alcanzar la profundidad del nido.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Saludos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Catherine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Here you can see the possible solution to the large quantities of rubbish that are left on the beaches of the Bahia de Jaltemba every week. The machine can collect plastics, glass etc off the beaches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people have expressed concern of the possible negative effects on the turtles that nest on the beach of Rincon de Guayabitos. Personally I think that the plastic that enters the sea from this beach is a greater danger to not only the sea turtles but all of the marine fauna in the area than the beach cleaner. This season we have only collected 10 nests from Guayabitos beach all of which are incubated in polystyrene boxes. Even if we were to leave a nest “in situ” the beach cleaner does not disturb the sand at the depth at which nests are located.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Best&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Catherine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SohZkolQrqI/AAAAAAAAA7I/3LgHSumplCI/s1600-h/100_2484.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370641041543179938" style="DISPLAY: block;

A continuación se presentan fotos de su tiempo con nosotros. Limpiaron la playa y como se puede ver la se quedó muy limpio. Lamentablemente en la segunda noche hubo una tormenta en el campamento, pero no se detuvo a los scouts, cantaban alrededor de una foco azul en la caseta de incubacion en lugar de una fogata en la playa. Esperamos que pueden venir a visitarnos en unos meses cuando estan a eclosionar las tortuguitas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;At the weekend we were visited be a Scout group from Guadalajara. Below you can see photos of their time at the turtle camp. The Scouts cleaned the beach and as you can see the it was left spotless. Due to a storm on the second night songs were sung around a blue light bulb in the incubation room rather than around a camp fire on the beach! We hope that they will be able to visit us later in the season when we have hatchlings to release.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Saludos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Catherine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368360455793381282" style="DISPLAY: block;

La medida obedece a que en el país no se hace cumplir la legislación que obliga a la flota camaronera nacional a proteger a las tortugas marinas de morir ahogadas en sus redes de arrastre, mediante el uso del Dispositivo Excluidor de Tortugas (DET).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Según explica un reporte emitido por el Departamento de Estado, la decisión de embargar el camarón costarricense fue el resultado de una investigación que se tardó años, e incluyó visitas de campo para certificar el uso del DET, así como información recopilada por terceros. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;La evidencia señala que el Instituto Costarricense de Pesca y Acuicultura (Incopesca) no había “sancionado debidamente a los infractores de manera tal que desalentaría el no uso del DET”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pretoma.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/2009-frn-section-609-04-29-09.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;http://www.pretoma.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/2009-frn-section-609-04-29-09.pdf&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;“Incopesca ha sido en extremo negligente”, denunció Andy Bystrom de Pretoma, una organización ambientalista costarricense que ha trabajado el tema del DET desde 1997. “Incopesca fue advertido que el camarón costarricense podría sufrir un embargo desde Diciembre del 2008 durante reuniones con el Departamento de Estado, a lo cual los funcionarios respondieron que resolverían el asunto a inicios del 2009, pero no han hecho absolutamente nada”. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Costa Rica fue el único país cuyo camarón fue embargado. Quedan 15 países que mantienen su derecho a exportar camarón a los EEUU: Belice, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Madagascar, México, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistán, Panamá, Surinam, y Venezuela.“Este es el 4to embargo que sufre Costa Rica desde 1999, lo que viene a comprobar que desde hace mucho tiempo la política oficial del Estado ha sido ignorar la legislación nacional que obliga al uso del DET, y permitir la masacre innecesaria de miles de tortugas marinas, ahogadas en las redes de los camaroneros”, dijo Randall Arauz, Presidente de Pretoma. “Ahora nuestra preocupación es el resto de los países de Centroamérica donde ocurre la pesca de camarón por arrastre, ya que en ningún lugar de la región se hace cumplir la regulación del DET estrictamente”.“El incumplimiento de las regulaciones que exigen el uso del DET de parte de las flotas camaroneras es un problema que ocurre alrededor del mundo”, dijo Todd Steiner, Director Ejecutivo de Turtle Island Restoration Network, una organización ambiental con sede en San Francisco, California(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seaturtles.org/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;www.seaturtles.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Esta organización sostiene actualmente negociaciones con el Gobierno de los EEUU, luego de haber presentado un aviso de intención de presentar una denuncia contra el Departamento de Estado de los EEUU, por no crear un proceso significativo ni transparente para evaluar a las naciones exportadoras de camarón y asegurar la protección apropiada de las tortugas marinas, como lo exige la Ley Pública 101-162 sección 609 del Acta de Especies Amenazadas. Esta ley exige el uso de tecnología que protege a las tortugas de morir ahogadas en las redes camaroneras de arrastre.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Video sobre la pesca de camarón por arrastre y las tortugas marinas: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kELNZsxqguw" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kELNZsxqguw&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Fotografá de una tortuga verde muerta en la cubierta de un barco camaronero. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pretoma.org/?attachment_id=679" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;http://www.pretoma.org/?attachment_id=679&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Para más información: Pretoma &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://uk.mc866.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=info@pretoma.org" ymailto="mailto:info@pretoma.org"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;info@pretoma.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt; (506) 2241 5227 Costa Rica Pretoma es una Asociación Civil costarricense declarada de Utilidad Pública, y es miembro activo de la Unión Internacional Para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (UICN) y la Sociedad Mundial Para la Protección Animal (WSPA).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;PROTOMA: PRESS RELEASE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;United States bans shrimp from Costa Rica to protect sea turtles&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;(May 6, 2009 – San José, Costa Rica)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;The US Department of State`s Bureau of Oceans, Environment, and Science imposed a trade embargo on all Costa Rican shrimp exports to the US, effective as of May 1. The embargo is due to Costa Rica's failure to enforce its laws that require commercial shrimp fishers to protect sea turtles from capture and death in trawl nets by using Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;According to a report issued by the State Department, the decision to embargo Costa Rica was the result of a multi-year investigation that involved certification visits and data compiled from credible third-party sources. The evidence points out how Costa Rica's Fishery Institute(Incopesca), didn’t “provide sanctions for TED violations that served as an effective deterrent against the failure to use TEDs”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pretoma.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/2009-frn-section-609-04-29-09.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;http://www.pretoma.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/2009-frn-section-609-04-29-09.pdf&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;“Incopesca has been extremely negligent”, denounced Andy Bystrom of Pretoma, a Costa Rican NGO that has worked on TED issues since 1997. “In meetings with the State Department in December 2008, Incopesca was warned that Costa Rica`s shrimp could be embargoed, to which the officers responded that they would resolve the problem in early 2009, but they haven’t done a thing”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;Costa Rica was the only country whose shrimp was embargoed by the US. The 15 nations that retain their hold on the US shrimp market are: Belize, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Madagascar, Mexico, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, Panama, Suriname, and Venezuela.“This is Costa Rica`s 4th shrimp embargo since 1999, which comes to prove that a long term official policy has been to ignore domestic TED regulations and allow the needles massacre of thousands of sea turtles, drowned by industrial shrimp trawlers”, said Randall Arauz, President of Pretoma. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;“Our concern now is the rest of the Central American countries where shrimp trawling occurs, as TED regulations are not strictly enforced anywhere in the region”."Shrimp fishers non-compliance with TED laws is a chronic problem occurring throughout the world”, said Todd Steiner, executive director of Turtle Island Restoration Network, in Forest Knolls, CA (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seaturtles.org/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;www.seaturtles.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;TIRN is also in negotiations with the U.

Haciendo historia, en Febrero 3 de 2007 se reportó e hizo difusión del caso de una cría de ballena jorobada que en el área de Bahía de Banderas fue embestida por una embarcación produciéndole graves heridas en el lomo. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Para ese entonces se hizo un llamado de atención a las autoridades debido a la indiferencia de estas para hacer valer la ley que rige la actividad de observación de ballenas, dicha ley es violentada todos los días por una infinidad de embarcaciones que con todo lujo de impunidad salen a ver ballenas no solo sin permiso, que es requisito para la operación comercial de esta actividad, si no que además son quienes menos respetan a los animales, por lo que solo era cuestión de tiempo para que esto tuviera consecuencias para las ballenas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Aunado a esto la autoridad correspondiente ha entregado un sin fin de permisos para la observación de ballenas en el área, sin establecer requisitos más estrictos para quienes realicen esta actividad y lo más importante sin considerar capacidad de carga que esta especie pueda soportar sin ser perjudicada por la actividad. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;En los últimos años ha existido una estrecha colaboración entre las empresas bien constituidas y que han cumplido con todos los requisitos que la autoridad ha impuesto, se han entregado infinidad de reportes de embarcaciones ilegales y sobre los problemas que estas acarrean y no ha habido una respuesta. Algunos empresarios dedicados a la observación de ballenas han ofrecido a PROFEPA, Jalisco y Nayarit embarcaciones y apoyo económico para que puedan realizar las labores necesarias de vigilancia, sin embargo no se sabe que más requieren para actuar. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;El incremento en el tráfico náutico y la falta de vigilancia en Bahía de Banderas ha cobrado SU SEGUNDA VICTIMA, nuevamente el día de hoy 30 de Enero de 2009 se encontró otra cría embestida por alguna embarcación la cual también le produjo heridas graves en su lomo (se anexan fotografías de la misma). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Esto es muy grave si consideramos que la Ballena Jorobada es una especie en peligro de extinción y que Bahía de Banderas es una zona muy importante para la reproducción de esta especie, además de fungir como zona de refugio para Madres con Crías durante invierno. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Así mismo México en 2002 creó el Santuario Nacional para Ballenas más grande del mundo al decretar todas las aguas patrimoniales de nuestro país como Área de Refugio para Grandes Ballenas, sin embargo aunque México no es un país con tradición en la caza de ballenas, no se ha visto en buen papel ya que últimamente se han reportado en diversos puertos del país incidentes que afectan a las ballenas tales como el enmallamiento, acoso de embarcaciones o embestidas por embarcaciones. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;No sabemos hasta cuando las autoridades correspondiente pondrán atención a estos incidentes tanto en el desorden de la actividad turística, como el de embestidas y el de entallamientos, y que ahora si decidan cumplir con sus obligaciones, por el bien de las ballenas y la gente que depen de ellas, de igual manera deberían de hacerlo para poner en alto el nombre de México ya que si se dice que somos reserva para&lt;br /&gt;las ballenas hay que REALMENTE PROTEGERLAS.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Below is a press release from&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conexión con la Vida Silvestre AC :&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;(please be aware that this is a translation by myself, not by the above charity).&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Again we appeal to the authorities in responsible for the regulation of activities concerned with and the protection of whales.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the 3rd of February 2007 an incident was reported to the local press of the plight of a humpback whale calf in the Banderas Bay that received serious injuries to its spine as a result of being hit by a boat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This should have been a wake-up call to the authorities responsible for upholding the law that regulates whale watching, and which is broken every day by various unlicensed commercial whale watching vessels that go to view whales without fear of prosecution. To add insult to injury unlicensed vessels are less likely to respect the whales. It was only a matter of time until the humpbacks paid the price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition to this the authority has issued a number of new permits for whale watching in the area without introducing stringent requirements for those conducting this activity and furthermore, without considering the load capacity that this species can withstand without being harmed by the activity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In recent years the well-established ecoturism companies have worked together to meet all the requirements that the authorities have asked of them, and despite having written numerous reports on illegal boats and the problems that these cause,there has been no response from the authorities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some entrepreneurs involved in whale watching have offered PROFEPA, Jalisco and Nayarit economic support and vessels to undertake the work required to monitor the bay. It is not known what more they need in order to act.&lt;br /&gt;The increase in marine traffic and lack of monitoring in the Bay of Banderas has today claimed ITS SECOND VICTIM (30th January 2009).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again on the 30th January 2009, another humpback whale calf was found displaying fatal wounds from a collision with a boat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a serious problem if we consider that the Humpback whale is an endangered species and that the Bay of Banderas is one of its most important breeding grounds and acts as a sanctuary for mothers with young during the winter months.&lt;br /&gt;Furthermore in 2002 Mexico created the National Sanctuary for Whales which is the largest in the world consisting of all the national seas. Mexico is not a country with a history of whaling even so its reputation has been damaged recently by various reports of entanglements and boat collisions.&lt;br /&gt;We do not know when the authorities will pay attention to these incidents or to the problems with unlicensed commercial whale watching. For the sake of the whales and the people who rely on them, and furthermore to uphold Mexico’s name for if we say that Mexico is a reserve for whales then we should TRULY PROTECT THEM. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Escrito por: Biol.

Ya estoy en la mitad del curso y todo va bien. Hoy quiero platicarles un poquito sobre mi práctica de campo en África del Sur!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295141524887571154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SXwfKXpYCtI/AAAAAAAAA0U/AmhSqj8gTJs/s400/100_1706.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quizás parece algo raro incluirlo aquí, África del Sur esta muy lejos de Nayarit, México. Pero de hecho, puedo ver muchas de los mismos problemas y éxitos en los dos países. Por ejemplo las personas están mirando el ecoturismo para obtener dinero. También hay problemas sociales muy fuertes (por la segregacion racial) los cuales afectan los trabajos para proteger la biodiversidad y el bienestar de las personas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295142932925927826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SXwgcU_4UZI/AAAAAAAAA00/_u2AkXF8q84/s400/100_1722.jpg" border="0" /&gt;En mi primer día en el país, fui a ver el proyecto llamado “Cape Flats Nature” un proyecto trabajando para proteger la increíble biodiversidad que tiene la cuidad de Cape Town. Es una situación muy difícil. La cuidad tiene 76 especies endémicas al cuidado (es decir que es el único lugar en el planeta en que puedes encontrarlas, dentro de la ciudad de Cape Town!!!). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dos muchachas nos explicaron sobre los trabajos del grupo los cuales están enfocados en trabajar con las comunidades marginadas. La cuidad de Cape Town tiene desempleo de 20% en las zonas donde trabaja el grupo y el SIDA está destruyendo las vidas de muchas personas. Pero entre todo eso Cape Flats Nature está trabajando para demostrar los beneficios que la biodiversidad puede traer a las personas como medicina y protección del viento (hay grandes dunas costeras protegiendo partes de la ciudad). También están buscando maneras de crear empleo y liderazgo en las comunidades. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295141895516959026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SXwff8WTsTI/AAAAAAAAA0c/RIJgvtb-Ddk/s400/100_1708.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295142595969084178" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3nWxpj2ZgUA/SXwgItvG6xI/AAAAAAAAA0s/w9vr55EviL4/s400/100_1712.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Otra iniciativa importante que vi fue uno manejado por “Cape Nature” llamado Farmers and Predators. El proyecto esta trabajado para educar y/o ayudar granjeros con “depredadores problemáticos” como el leopardo, caracal y Jacal, los cuales pueden matar ganado. Buscan maneras para evitar que los depredadores maten ganado y si hay un individuo que está matando ganado buscan como moverlo a otro lugar o selectivamente matar el animal problemático. Un problema que han encontraron es que si muevan un leopardo, el animal regresa solo a su territorio original. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En mi segunda semana en África del Sur en la región de Kwa Zulu Natal tuve la oportunidad de realizar una cosa que he esperado desde que comenze a trabajar con las tortugas marinas. Fui a una playa de deshove para las tortugas caguamas y laudes. Después de 10 minutos patrullando en una camioneta (la playa es de 25 kilómetros) vi a una tortuga laúd desovar! Los nidos de tortuga están dejados “in situ” para eclosionar naturalmente. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295155633811540898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px;
