Students will visit a nesting site in the supervision of a KEC Eco-Action presenter and a nature specialist (park ranger or sea turtle steward at the beach park) to see first hand the environment the female sea turtles and the young have to face for survival. These challenges include: people on the beach and nest vulnerability, garbage on the beach that pose problems to survival, natural predators to eggs as well as hatchlings.<\/p>\n
