Leatherback Sea Turtle Biology

 

The FSRS is participating in studying the biology of the Leatherback sea turtles.

The Society's fishermen members report any sightings (alive or dead) to Leatherback Sea Turtle Working Group by calling the toll free number 1-888-729-4667.

By reporting these sightings, biologists are finding out that leatherbacks do regularly occur in Atlantic Canada waters, rather than just freak occurrences.

Please go to the Leatherback Sea Turtle Working Group Web site to learn more about the Biology of this species.
