There are many things each of us can do to help sea turtles survive.
First, we must remember that we share the oceans and the beaches with many other species.
Second, become informed about the things that are killing sea turtles or destroying their habitat. Elected officials and other leaders are making decision on issues that affect sea turtles almost every day. As an informed citizen, you have the power to influence the outcome of these issues by making your voice heard.
One way to keep informed about important issues is to join and support groups like the Sea Turtle Survival League, which monitor issues and encourage their members to get involved.
The Sea Turtle adoption program in which Villa Montana Beach resort and its guest families participate is but a step toward awareness of how our eco-system in the Caribbean fits together.

They have existed for over 100 million years, and they travel throughout the world's oceans. Suddenly, however, they are struggling to survive -- largely because of things people are doing to the planet's oceans and beaches. But what does this mean for the human species?
It is possible that a world in which sea turtles can not survive may soon become a world in which humans struggle to survive.
If, however, we learn from our mistakes and begin changing our behavior, there is still time to save sea turtles from extinction. In the process, we will be saving one of the earth's most mysterious and time-honored creatures. We might just be saving ourselves too.
