Tis’ the season for giving and instead of buying tons of gagets you don’t need, consider spending your time and money helping save endangered species in Mexico.  Humboldt Baykeeper’s Bay Exploration Skipper Chuck DeWitt has been traveling to San Pancho Mexico, about 35 miles north of Puerto Vallarta, to volunteer with Project Tortuga and save the olive ridley and leatherback sea turtle.  

Project Tortuga has a 20 year record of successfully releasing endangered sea turtle eggs back to the ocean once they have hatched. The project is currently looking for volunteers and welcomes individuals, family and people of all ages to join the global effort to save these endangered sea turtles.
