gentle touched her

Adoption Options
Satellite-Tracked Turtle
The Caribbean Conservation Corporation has several named turtles with
satellite transmitters attached to the back of their shells. This allows
us to use space age technology to learn more about their migratory behavior
(Satellite tracking FAQ). When you adopt a satellite-tagged turtle, you
can track the turtle's movements through our website! To find out which
satellite turtles are available for adoption, check the current list of
Satellite Tracked Turtles For "Adoption".
Name Your Own Turtle
With this option, you can adopt one of the many turtles CCC researchers
tag on the warm sand beaches of our research station in Costa Rica. With
a Name Your Own Turtle Adoption, you are the only person to adopt your
turtle and you choose the turtle's name. We will notify you via our newsletter
if we see your turtle again.
How CCC Uses Your Donation
Through sea turtle research, conservation and advocacy, the Caribbean
Conservation Corporation and its Sea Turtle Survival League are addressing
the threats to sea turtles and the natural habitats upon which they depend.
Your tax-deductible donation will help us ensure sea turtles are swimming
free in the oceans for future generations!
HABITAT PROTECTION
CCC and STSL program work to enact protective laws and to establish sanctuaries
for sea turtles. Through environmentally-sound tourism, visitors experience
nature without harming it, and enhance the economies of local communities.
ADVOCACY
CCC and STSL monitor numerous state, national and international issues
affecting marine turtles. As issues arise that pose a threat to turtles,
our experts intervene with appropriate direct action.
RESEARCH
Over four decades of scientific study sponsored by Caribbean Conservation
has generated essential data about endangered species and their habitats
and has advanced the world's understanding of the ancient and enigmatic
sea turtle.
EDUCATION
CCC and STSL work with League members, coastal residents, conservationists,
and governments to increase awareness about sea turtles and the threats
facing them. Education is the first step toward effective and long lasting
protection of endangered species.
