7 Ways We Build Capacity For Conservation

Research, Monitoring, Education, and Solutions

1. Develop Skills: Anyone can be a Turtle Guardian. We provide interactive and in-depth training on turtle biology, behaviours, threats and recovery. We also provide training to police, road crews, and practitioners. And we have a Turtle Guardian Hotline to provide guidance to North America.

2. Support Local Leadership: Concerned citizens want to help, and we quarterback those people who are willing to recruit and coordinate volunteers in their neighborhoods by providing infrastructure, resources and guidance.

3. Research: There's so much to learn if we are to help turtles. We work to fill knowledge gaps in understanding how turtles individually, and populations generally respond to threats and also solutions. We design research projects, gather data, and work in partnership

5. Mitigation: Pioneering New Solutions. We design, test, map, and install innovative ecopassage systems and seasonal alert systems.

6. Education: How we keep kids connected. We provide hands on education to kids of all ages through camps, curriculums, presentations, and kid-geared programs.

7. Recruitment: Hatching the future. Now one of the largest incubators in Ontario, incubation of at risk nests supports recovery.
