Mexican Biologist Gilberto Galindo Castro M.V.Z. under permission by SEMARNAT, and President of Grupo Ecologico Manos Unidas por Litibu A.C. reports the following summary from the 2007 turtle season on the beaches of Litibu, Malinal, Punta Negra and Playa Careyeros.Gilberto safely relocated 191 turtle nest contents of 19,193 eggs to the turtle corral. This resulted in his successful release of 17,849 baby sea turtle hatchlings into the sea. He had a 93% survival rate of hatchlings from eggs, which is phenomenal and due to his excellent care of the turtles and scientific methodology.
