Baby Leatherback Turtles in French Guiana (by Mel)

Here is a little video about baby leatherback hatchlings in French Guiana (Yalimapo, June 2006). Enjoy, comment and protect the sea !
Last minute : in 2006 that video had been sold to a UK organism which provides educational CD-roms to primary schools. It will be put in one of them with a voice comment to sensibilize kids to the conservation of those huge endangered marine vertebrates. Well done Mel ;-)

Well, I have read something about the University of B.C. trying to do that sort of stuff but I don't think this is a good idea... You can learn more about this if you type "Project sheds light on rare turtles" in google and read the first page (sorry I don't seem to be able to post the link)
