Gift Republic GR100023 Adopt It - Adopt a Sea Turtle

Product Information

Corals of opportunity are fragments of coral that have naturally been dislodged from the parent colony or substrate. It plants new trees and supports local people to build thriving livelihoods, through community managed tree nurseries and the creation of forest-based tourism experiences. Two exclusive magazines: WWF’s ‘Wild World’ and ‘My Turtle’ with news and updates for your adopted animal.

So, please sign up to adopt a nest with us and spread the word to your friends and family – each nest adopted allows up to 150 endangered turtle hatchlings to go out to sea, rather than ending up in the marketplace.Often what happens is as they swim up to the surface, they become trapped in fishing gear and end up drowning. The Sea Turtle Conservancy® logo and logo turtle are registered trademarks of the Sea Turtle Conservancy. And, despite the turtles being an endangered species, people still kill the them for their eggs, meat, skin and shells. They support fishermen in poor countries so that they use equipment that is less likely to hurt sea turtles. Your symbolic adoption of a sea turtle will support ORP’s mission to protect sea turtles and their habitats; six out of the remaining seven species of sea turtles are threatened with extinction according to the IUCN Red List.

Adopting a hatchling is very easy: first, fill up the following form and, after submitting it, you will be sent to a new page where you will find the different options to make your donation.Adopting a turtle is one of the most meaningful ways that you can help support the work of Projeto Biodiversidade. Did you notice that there may only be one or two birds when you start but there’s a lot more by the time you’re done? Project Biodiversity are doing a wonderful job educating locals as well as tourists and the local tourism industry about how they can work together to save the turtles.

A lot of times I see a plastic bag floating in the ocean and I go after it because it looks like a jellyfish.

You will receive a Certificate of Adoption and also a plaque featuring your name (or the name of a family member, friend or a memorial) will be placed near the animals enclosure within the park. Although this species now shows signs of recovery thanks to a long-term, dedicated multinational conservation effort, its population is still only a small fraction of what it was when it was first discovered in the 1940s.
