Volunteers of the association for about a year and a half, Eric and Patrick come to the Sea turtle care center once or twice a week to help our team members.<\/p>\n

Their days begin with a tour of the turtle pond to check the health conditions of the animals. This continues with the preparation of their food and the cleaning of the nurseries to ensure that no harmful elements are present. Finally, our volunteers feed the sea turtles and clean the equipment. They also take notes on their appetite and their evolution.<\/p>\n
