A sea turtle sanctuary in Costa Rica is under threat from over-development and mass-tourism. This video was created to bring awareness to the Ostional National Wildlife Refuge and the challenges it currently faces. The Wildlife Conservation Association is developing programs to protect sea turtles and other wildlife at this site. Our goal is to unite existing efforts in the community to promote sustainable tourism and development in the area. We are currently raising funds to establish a Center that will house all of these activities. Learn more: www.NosaraSustainability.org
