Description

This is the smallest genetically and demographically distinct leatherback population in the world with fewer than 20 females nesting each year. The intent of this project is to build capacity and knowledge in support of the establishment of a marine protected area to protect this population from fisheries bycatch mortality and to build capacity for nesting beach monitoring and protection. Activities include: (1) characterize fisheries and fishing activities; (2) analyze fisheries and leatherback satellite tracking data to determine interaction zones in support of the MPA; (3) conduct training of field monitors to improve capacity for data collection and nest protection; and (4) conduct outreach and education activities including night patrols on nesting beaches with local community members.
