A leatherback turtle named in your honour

Each year, leatherbacks lay their eggs on Zaira's black sand beaches. Zaira's volunteer rangers protect and monitor the turtles and their nests. Each of the turtles that visit the beaches are tagged and given an individual name. Zaira rangers will name a turtle in your honour and provide photographs and updates on the animal. We'll also keep you up to date with the turtle's global movements if it is fitted with a satellite tracker. Please note: Leatherback McLeatherface is not an option!
