North Island in the Seychelles is a vital nesting site for Critically Endangered Hawksbill and Vulnerable Green Turtles. Wildlife ACT works with the island's Environmental Team to monitor and protect these species, restore native habitats, and safeguard surrounding marine ecosystems. Your support funds essential monitoring, invasive species removal, reef surveys, and habitat restoration to keep North Island a wildlife sanctuary.
North Island is a sanctuary for endemic and endangered wildlife such as the Critically Endangered Hawksbill and Vulnerable Green Turtles. Still, their survival is under threat: invasive species, pollution, and climate change damage nesting beaches and coastal habitats. Without urgent protection and restoration, these iconic species could be lost.
Wildlife ACT works with North Island's Environmental Team to monitor terrapin, tortoise, and sea turtle nesting activity, protect nests, remove invasive species and restore native vegetation. By maintaining safe, healthy habitats and reducing threats, we improve nesting success and safeguard the long-term survival of these keystone species.
By protecting turtle nests, removing invasive species, and restoring native habitats, this project will help secure North Island as a lasting refuge for Hawksbill and Green Turtles, as well as Aldabra giant tortoises and Seychelles black-mud terrapins. Healthy coastal and marine ecosystems will support wider biodiversity, strengthen climate resilience, and ensure future generations can witness these endangered species thrive in the wild.
