| Sea turtles are very
interesting creatures and their innocent appearance touches the hearts of
many. Their battle for survival, however, is becoming harder and
harder as time goes by because of man's encroachment on their nesting
areas and pollutants of all forms that we put in the oceans. North
Florida provides nesting areas for many sea turtles, mostly loggerheads,
with an occasional Leatherback and Green. |

are very active in their efforts to observe, document, and ensure the
safety of the nesting efforts of the sea turtles. |
