Defying failure with circumstances at a dismally low success rate? &nbsp;Believe it or not, those of us who have been lucky enough to spot an adult sea turtle are in fact witnessing a truly miraculous creature in nature. &nbsp;A miracle of life, if you will. &nbsp;What makes the sea turtle such a phenomenon? &nbsp;Let\u2019s take a look at the numbers:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Say an adult female sea turtle lays 1,000 eggs. Sounds like plenty of sea turtles to go around, correct? However, how many of those sea turtle eggs will make it to become adult sea turtles? &nbsp;Consider these odds. &nbsp;Out of 1,000 sea turtle eggs:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">200 eggs DO NOT hatch<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">400 baby turtles DO NOT make it to the water<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">200 baby turtles DO NOT progress to adulthood<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">120 baby turtles DO NOT make it to breeding age<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">18 DO NOT survive due to human interference<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Who\u2019s good with mental math? &nbsp;938 sea turtles out of 1000 do not make it to become adults. &nbsp;62 out of 1,000 means that sea turtles have less than a 10% chance of surviving. &nbsp;6.2%! &nbsp;Yet somehow, these majestic animals have been around since the dinosaur age and are still with us here today. &nbsp;Well, somewhat with us, and it is up to us to make sure they continue to survive. &nbsp;Take a look at the endangered status for the seven species of sea turtles that swim our world\u2019s seven seas as reported by the <a title=\"Sea Turtle Conservation in Central America | Ecotoursim\" href=\"https:\/\/www.worldwildlife.org\/pages\/infographic-sea-turtles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">World Wildlife Organization<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And boy, do sea turtles ever swim the Earth\u2019s oceans! &nbsp;Sea turtles can travel hundreds of thousands of miles from their feeding grounds to their nesting beach. &nbsp;Imagine walking from Panama to Mexico and back every year!! What makes this feat even more impressive is that a female sea turtle will faithfully return to nest on the exact same beach that she was born! &nbsp;What loyal creatures with amazing built in GPS systems! &nbsp;Don&#8217;t believe us? &nbsp;See for yourself how you can track and even adopt your own sea turtle with the <a title=\"Sea Turtle Conservation in Central America | Ecotoursim\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conserveturtles.org\/seaturtletracking.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sea Turtle Conservancy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1832 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-300x226.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"381\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-768x577.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-600x451.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-696x523.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-559x420.jpg 559w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sea_turtle_conservation_central_america2.jpg 782w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/>Sea turtles are miraculous creatures, and fortunately many Latin American countries are doing their part to help protect these unique reptiles. &nbsp;Sea turtle conservation in Costa Rica has truly made an effort of promoting awareness and education for both those living in Costa Rica and those visiting. &nbsp; Of all of Central America sea turtle conservation projects, Costa Rica in particular is known for its investment in ecotourism and educating visitors on responsible travel practices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What are the most popular beach destinations in Costa Rica to see sea turtles as they continue their precarious life cycle? &nbsp;Over 25% of Costa Rica\u2019s landmass is protected, many of which are national parks.
