In two and a half months, 10 dead sea turtles in danger of extinction were located on beaches in the municipalities of Alvarado and Boca del Río , within the area of influence of the Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano National Park (PNSAV).
The latest finding was reported this Saturday, March 21, on the beach of the Lomas del Sol private subdivision , located in the Riviera Veracruzana , one of the areas of highest added value in the entire state of Veracruz.
It was a juvenile specimen of green turtle of reproductive age, a species protected by the Official Mexican Standard NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010, due to its critical and vulnerable status.
The civil association Earth Mission, which participates as a Environmental Monitoring Committee certified by Profepa , carried out the survey, which was found along with at least a dozen rays, a species close to manta rays with little commercial value in fishing activity.
