"To an environmental degree the Earth has benefited from the lack of
humans traveling all over it due to COVID-19 lock downs. The olive
ridley sea turtle is one of those beneficiaries. Regarded by the WWF the
olive ridley is classified as vulnerable, but a conservation group has
released over 2,250 baby turtles to Mexico's Sea of Cortez. The group
Tortugueros del Desemboque is run by the Indigenous Seri community,
which is based in the Mexican state Sonora."
