Volunteer in a turtle project

Descriere program

This wildlife center is located on the Pacific coast of Guatemala. This center is much more about extinction, reaching out to the five communities to help them develop sustainably, all as part of the broader effort of the management of the Hawaii Protected Area.
The center is dedicated to these projects:
* Sea Turtle Conservation (the center operates the most productive of the 18-21 hatcheries in Guatemala, collecting up to 40,000 olive ridley and leatherback eggs per year)
* Captive Breeding (In an attempt to counteract the effects of unsustainable hunting and habitat loss, the center breeds spectacled caimans and green iguanas for release in the mangrove forests)
* Environmental Education (the center carries out educational activities such as lectures on litter, ecology and endangered species and interactive events such as beach clean-ups and baby turtle release “races” at area schools)
* Mangrove Preservation and Reforestation (ARCAS is working with the Guatemalan government to set up a 3,500 hectare protected area in the mangroves of the area)

Activities for the volunteers include for example:
- Turtle Conservation (Egg Collection and Hatchery Management)
- Cayman and iguana breeding
- Mangrove reforestation
- Environmental education
- Community projects
