Work with Endangered Leatherback Sea Turtles
------------------------------------------- 
Ecology Project International is offering a Costa Rica Sea
Turtle Ecology Program to students in the Bay Area.  While
on-course, students will monitor a population of critically
endangered leatherback sea turtles on the Caribbean coast of 
Costa Rica in collaboration with sea turtle biologists and
local Costa Rican communities. This is an amazing
opportunity to assist with authentic research and be active
in international conservation efforts. The 12-day course 
includes over 50 hours coursework and instruction with 20
hours of field research. While at the sea turtle nesting
area, every student develops and presents a field-based
research project.
