“ADOPT a TURTLE” Subic/Bataan Eco Tour

February 24 to 25, 2007

Marine Turtles are transboundary creatures, they travel great distances to feed and grow. But because as hatchlings the imprint the magnetic fiel of area they always go back to where they were hatched after 25 to 30 years to copulate and lay their eggs.

How ever communities especially in underdeveloped countries, uninformed of their functions in the environment have hunted them down in the sea or slaughtered them while they lay their eggs in the beach for their shell and skin. While their eggs and meat are collected as food.

NACCI is promoting and supporting the Pawikan Conservation Center, a community based project of reformed poachers in the protection of the turtles.
