Description

We, Widecast Costa Rica, are looking for volunteers for our projects on the Caribbean coast (Moin and Pacuare) and on the Peninsula de Osa (In-water studies and Playa Sombrero). Except for our In-water studies project, we work with night patrols searching for nesting sea turltes to collect data (size, ohysical condition, tag number) as well es their eggs to relocate them or guard them in our hatchery. The project In-water studies catches sea turtles (and releases them unharmed!) to gain information about the entire population (physical condition, behavior and demographic structure). We also run two rescue centers or marine sea turtles to nurse weak or harmed sea turtles in Project "Pacuare" and "Osa In-Water Studies". The later also runs a mangrove reforestation project. We could also need some help with nativve english speakers to revise our information sheets, documents, etc..
Please contact us for further Information!
