Notes From the Field
Here you can follow the excitement of a research field season as CCC's Field Coordinator sends regular updates from Tortuguero, Costa Rica. Research participants have already begun to experience the incredible ritual of a female sea turtle coming ashore to nest. How about you?
Volunteer Research Participants are arriving in Tortuguero each week ready to join in the field research! CCC invites you to join the fun and adventure during our Research Programs and make a difference by helping researchers with hands-on conservation work as a sea turtle research participant or a neotropical bird research participant. No experience needed, you will receive training in the field!
