Sea Turtles of New York

Atlantic Marine Conservation Society biologists bring the world of sea turtles to you. This program is designed to introduce participants to the seven species of sea turtles with a focus on the four species we
commonly see in New York. We will discuss the threats sea turtles face in our environment such as cold-stunning, fisheries interactions, and marine debris ingestion. By the end of the lecture participants will understand our species of sea turtles and be able to apply concepts taught in their environment.
