Projeto Tamar

Projeto Tamar is a Brazilian conservation initiative focused on protecting sea turtles and their habitats. Founded in 1980, it aims to preserve endangered species through research, community engagement, and environmental education. The project involves monitoring nesting sites, rescuing injured turtles, and raising awareness about the importance of marine ecosystems. By collaborating with local communities, Projeto Tamar not only safeguards sea turtles but also promotes sustainable practices that benefit both wildlife and people. Its efforts have contributed significantly to the recovery of various sea turtle populations along Brazil's coastline.
