Tortugueros Las Playitas A.C.

Program Reports

About our Science Based Conservation Program
 
Sea Turtle nests require a minimum of 26 degrees celcius for successful incubation.  You can see from the graphs below, each year in November /December the temperature drops far below 26. The Incubation Greenhouse raises the Sand Temperature allowing nests to incubate successfully. In the most recent years we incubate more than 10,000 endangered eggs in the greenhouse.
