SOS Tartarugas works in Cape Verde protecting nesting loggerheads turtles (Caretta caretta) and their habitat. Cape Verde is the third most important nesting area for loggerheads in the world. Turtles are at risk from hunting for meat, stealing of eggs, removal of sand for building and unregulated tourism development. Our email is info@turtlesos.org.

Data so far shows decrease in turtles killed on Sal

The latest figures for June and July show that 2010 is slightly busier than 2008 but much lower than 2009.  However great progress has been made in decreasing the mortality of turtles and increasing the number of saved turtles.
