Marine Turtle nesting season is on!!! And the WAIF

Marine Turtle nesting season is on!!! And the WAIF project (Wildlife Adaptation and Innovation Fund) from @wwf is showing super nice results already!!! 💚

The first pillar was to build more hatcheries in El Nido.

Besides the 3 existing locations, Duli, Nacpan and Lio (with a new hatchery at Seda Lio), there are 2 new locations where hatcheries have been built. In Dagmay at the property of Chester and Lucy Lim and in Bucana at the property of Emilio Liad and Father Mark Almonicar.

The second pillar of the WAIF project is patrolling.

As we speak every night 2 patrollers are enrolled in 5 different beaches. Their presence is already proving to be of great benefits. Nests relocated into the hatcheries are more than ever before! As of today for example: Bucana -, Dagmay - and Duli beach have protected a total of 36 nest so far. Tripple of what we had last year!

We look forward to the rest of the season and the results of having the patrollers on the beaches until half of February.

(Third pillar will be educational outreach).

We would like to thank everyone involved for realising this first part of the project! 💚

A special thanks to Lamave (@lamaveresearch) for their support, Kiko Velhagen (@velhagendazs) for brainstorming and managing activities and El Nido Boutique and Artcafé (@elnidoboutiqueartcafe) for donating the printed shirts for the patrollers. 💚
