Learn about the Sea Turtle Protection Zone (STPZ), a voluntary zone created by Loggerhead Marinelife Center and Archie Carr Center for Sea Turtle Research to help reduce human-related threats to sea turtles. This lecture will highlight major threats faced by sea turtles - particularly boating interactions - and explain how the STPZ uses public outreach, communication strategies, and voluntary slow-speed recommendations to promote safer boating practices. Join us to learn how you can help, and to gain a sneak peak of future steps aimed at evaluating program effectiveness and further reducing sea turtle injuries. Speaker: Meghan Boone Loggerhead Marinelife Center Conservation Threat Reduction Coordinator Registration closes at 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, January 27.
