AB SEA TURTLE AWARENESS

Our mission at AB Sea Turtle Awareness is to ensure that these magnificent creatures are protected and their habitats conserved for generations to come. We work tirelessly to raise awareness about the importance of sea turtles in our ecosystem and the threats they face. Our programs aim to educate and empower people to take action to protect sea turtles and their habitats. Join us in our efforts to make a difference today!

Why Are Sea Turtles Important?

Sea turtles, the keystone species of the sea, hold the key to maintaining thriving marine ecosystems. By preying on jellyfish and promoting seagrass growth, they ensure a delicate balance in the ocean. These magnificent creatures also contribute to nutrient cycling and coastal health, enriching the soil and supporting diverse coastal food webs. Join us in our mission to protect and conserve sea turtles, safeguarding the vitality of our oceans for generations to come.
