🐢 The Ecological Role of the Hawksbill Sea Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) In this video, we observe a hawksbill sea turtle feeding on soft coral—an essential natural behavior that helps maintain the health of coral reef ecosystems. 🌊 Hawksbill sea turtles feed primarily on sponges and soft corals, regulating their growth and preventing them from dominating reef structures. This process allows hard corals and other marine organisms to thrive, supporting balance and biodiversity within the reef

Rescue of Helene: Endangered Hawksbill Turtle's Recovery

Today we released Oualie, a Hawksbill female sea turtle. This is our 27th turtle during our Annual Sea Turtle Conservation efforts. We are so happy to continue protecting the sea turtles that call Nevis home, including the Green, Hawksbill and Leatherback turtle. We continue to work with the Sea Turtle Conservancy and The Nevis Turtle Group to educate the community about these endangered turtles. Go to https://tourdeturtles.org to track Oualie and see where she goes for the next three months. #F
