TTPP was thrilled to help support travel to the meeting by our favorite “turtlers,” Papa and Mama Tortuga (Fernando Manzano and Irma Galvan Tejada) of Vida Milenaria, thanks to our generous donors! Fernando and Irma were grateful for the opportunity to learn, share, and connect with other sea turtle conservationists from around the globe.

Our board president, Laura Kiehner, put this video together as a thank you to Vida Milenaria AC, for their dedication to sea turtles. They have inspired us, and so many others to take better care of our planet!

SO MUCH EXCITEMENT at VIDA MILENARIA! More than 80 TURTLES CAME TO NEST TODAY! The VM crew has their hands full, working so hard to protect the precious eggs of an endangered species! PLUS, here are recent photos showing personnel from the Aquarium of Veracruz outfitting a Kemp’s ridley with a satellite transmitter (in collaboration with the Gladys Porter Zoo).
