Turtle
Nesting Season Notes
by Alma Boada S.
The 2007 Turtle Nesting Season was a challenge, since Hurricane Dean damaged so
many nests. However, we were able to make sure that 14,118 baby turtles made it
to the sea this year. There were 203 nests and we lost at least 44 to the
hurricane. We thank everyone who helped us with the program.

To support our Turtle Program, please
consider adopting a turtle.
It is a perfect Valentine's Day gift for your loved one, while showing your
love for the turtles. 2008 is the International Year of the Reef and you can
join our efforts to protect the beautiful sea turtles, one of the many
species that depends on a healthy reef.
Look Who's Helping!
All of us at CEA want to extend a big Thank You to all the wonderful
people who are donating to our Auctions this year. We are pleased to announce
