Make Taking Turtle Eggs a Felony Punishable by High fines

The Issue

 

 

Sea turtles are critically endangered, with only 1 in 1,000 hatchlings surviving to adulthood. Poaching of turtle eggs significantly contributes to their decline. Making the theft of turtle eggs a felony punishable by fines with a minimum of 10,000 dollars and a ban from all beaches will help protect these vulnerable creatures and ensure their survival for future generations. Please sign this petition to urge lawmakers to take immediate action against this harmful practice and save our sea turtles from extinction.
