Let's Protect the Leatherback Turtle of Costa Rica

This article is by Cristian Barboza who was born in Costa Rica and is a reader of costaricalearn.com.

It would be a shame not only for us Ticos, but for all humanity to loose such a precious and majestic creature as the  endangered Leatherback turtle, the largest sea turtle on earth.

We as humans must respect our environment and protect it.  If not we will loose part of our history and in the process loose part of ourselves.

We humans have the capability to protect all species and to make sure they are not killed off by ridiculous  and old fashioned customs.

Let's unite our efforts and make sure we do all we can to preserve this beautiful planet and all the treasurers on it.

Thank you Christian for these wise words.
