Tour de Turtles: It's a sea turtle marathon race. "Created by Sea Turtle Conservancy, with help from sponsors and partners, this event follows the marathon migration of sea turtles, representing different species, from their nesting beaches to their foraging grounds. 2011 is the fourth year of the TdT and will follow the migration of 15 sea turtles, representing four different species."

Where do you find this stuff:)

ReplyDeleteDid I mention that I have a degree in Zoology? Anything in the news about animals will get my attention. This is a worthy nonprofit organization with corporate sponsors like Disney World and the World Wildlife Fund, so I felt comfortable directing people to it. (In other words, it isn't one of those animal rights organizations run by a bunch of wackos.)
