No, really. It is actually a big check! Several members of the team at Florida Leatherbacks Inc. recently accepted a donation from the National Save the Sea Turtle Foundation (NSTSTF) to support our study this upcoming research season. NSTSTF is a local non profit that supports many sea turtle conservation groups and we are very happy to have their support. More infomation about their programs can be found at their website: savetheseaturtle.org
The funds from this donation will be used to purchase equipment that will be used each night on the beach studying leatherback sea turtles.
Volunteers Sandra Wallace, Kelly Martin, Valerie Caruso and Sandy Fournies are presented with a donation from the National Save the Sea Turtle Foundation.
