DECEMBER / Costa Rica
We journeyed to Nosara ! Helping turtles , howlers , and more … Our alarms went off at 4:00am , it was pitch-black out when we left our hacienda to travel to the volcanic beach sands in search of baby turtles . We had the pleasure of protecting these sweet creatures while they made their way to the ocean ! We also learned about how transformers and powerlines are killing and injuring howler monkeys . We set a goal on insulating three of them !
