Environmental Protection and Care: Sea Turtle Nests

in environment •  6 years ago 



I tell you, this is the main beach of #Choroni is called "Playa Grande" at certain times of the year the waves are a little calmer, these months are so a little unruly, but it is a great beach, you can enjoy it with care and respect; Besides having an immense respect for the sea, this beach has a peculiarity that few know, and that is an ecological niche of sea turtles, in essence of the turtle "Boba cabezona-Caguama".

It is very interesting that there is this protection towards diversity, in the town there is a marine biologist who has been in charge of being aware of how these nests evolve, already on the beach there are approximately three nests and so find out in August some can go Being born, I was mega excited with the idea of being able to see the turtles come out but it is not the time yet and I would have to return in August but it is very difficult for me to live at the other end of the country. I love the idea of giving the population information about the importance of wildlife and marine life, and that they are able to keep these nests cared and protected with ribbons so that tourists know and stay away from this area.

Why are sea turtles so important?

Due to their function in the food chains, they are a kind of intermediary since they are predators and prey, even their eggs are used as food for crabs, mammals and birds; Of course these eggs in the natural cycle are ingested by these animals in a balanced way and not like the man who from one moment to another began to consume them in an uncontrolled way. Another important task of the turtles is the balance on what they eat as jellyfish and marine sponges, since these if they reproduce to a great extent could destroy reefs by over-population, so that turtles are part of the life cycle and Food chains, as well as many other animals deserve our care and respect.

I am very happy that these turtles can come to nest in this beach and that there are people who protect them, in many places they do not pay attention to life cycles like the one of the sea turtles that is so important and enriching, I went in love of this beach a few years ago and every time I go back with more beautiful things, so in the schools of the area they give talks and take them to the beach to explain more about all this, in the mornings the marine biologist take a walk on the beach to see if there are new marks in the sand which indicates that a turtle crawled to the beach to make a new nest, I hope to find a way to find out about these births and to be successful, for my care diversity is the most important thing to keep the cycles balanced, so when you take a bath on a beach look everywhere and be careful not to be on a turtle nest, it helps our planet to balance more and more. Greetings to all and bet to improve our planet!
