Sea Turtle Nest Predation Education Video

It’s a natural thing for predators to dig into sea turtle nests looking for food. However, people have altered coastal environments so much that raccoons, coyotes and some other small animals no longer have natural predators themselves.

The result is an unnaturally high number of predators near beaches that go after sea turtle nests. Fortunately, there are some simple, humane things we all can do to help reduce nest predation. Check out this video to see how you can help sea turtles survive!
