Projeto Tartarugas - Instituto de Pesquisas Canan

This project aims to obtain information about the biology and ecology of sea turtles that occur in the Complex Estuarino Lagunar of Cananéia /Paranaguá. Several subprojects in different fields are developed: genetics, ethnobiology, fishing, mortality, behavioral observation, epibionts, parasites and education.
We intend to contribute to the awareness of the local community and conservation of these animals and the region.

Working with sea turtles since 2003
