Covid19 regulations put Trinidad and Tobago sea turtles at risk

Covid19 regulations put Trinidad and Tobago sea turtles at risk Leatherback turtle headed out to sea - Photo courtesy Nature Seekers Nature Seekers TT, an environmental conservation group, is calling on Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh to allow sea-turtle conservationists access to beaches at night to monitor and collect data. The turtle-watching season began on March 1 and ends on August 30. The Public Health Ordinance only allows access to beaches between 6 am and 6 pm. Monitoring the turtles would be difficult with this restriction, since most sea turtle species usually come ashore at night during high tide. The organisation said, in a release on Tuesday, it had tried several times to get the necessary permits/exemptions for turtle-conservation work, but had been unsuccessful.
