In what consist this walk? |
This experience consists of a general speech about Las Baulas National Marine Park, its focal elements of management, challenges and conservation efforts.
The talk begins with a welcome and explanation about Las Baulas National Marine Park, the ecosystems it protects and the conservation strategy. Then, we will explain about the sea turtles and their physiology on a walk around the National Park facilities. Afterwards we will walk along the beach to visit the hatchery and the collection center to explain about the local challenges and conservation efforts. We will end with a brief discussion and analysis on what actions we can all do to ensure the survival of endangered species and ecosystems. |
Why is this important? |
Las Baulas de Guanacaste National Marine Park protects several ecosystems, including species that are at risk of extinction such as the tropical Eastern Pacific leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea), the mangrove hummingbird (Amazilia boucardi) and numerous marine species.
Publicizing the existence of this protected area, the wildlife it protects, the challenges and efforts for its conservation collaborates with the creation of criteria for making decisions for a more sustainable life and in harmony with the environment. |
WE CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTThis project seeks to ensure that people everywhere have the relevant information and awareness for sustainable development and lifestyles in harmony with nature; as well as strengthen efforts to protect and safeguard the world’s cultural and natural heritage.
