Help Endangered Leatherback Sea Turtles Rebound from a Precipitous Decline
On Costa Rica's Pacific coast, leatherback sea turtles come ashore under the cover of darkness to nest on protected beaches at Las Baulas National Marine Park. This stretch of coastline is among the most important nesting areas in the Eastern Pacific for the species, and the focus of one of Earthwatch Expeditions' longest-running research programs. Here, scientists are working to understand a critically endangered population that has existed in the same form since the Cretaceous period, about 100 million years ago, and whose numbers have dropped by more than 90% since 1980. Take part in this crucial work to uncover what’s driving these losses and learn what it will take to help leatherback turtles rebound.
