WORLD OCEAN DAY
(Español abajo)
The fishing communities in the area have watched the Golfo Dulce transform over the years. Its recovery has been slow, but now more than ever they are committed to seeing it thrive.
David and Daisy are artisanal fishers. They have built their lives and their families with mangroves as a pillar. That is why they fight day by day to ensure their actions contribute to keeping these mangroves alive for countless years to come.
Their story and that of seven more fishers will captivate you in our documentary "Unidos por el Golfo Dulce" (United by the Golfo Dulce). Coming soon to our YouTube channel. Stay tuned, this #WorldOceansWeek still has many surprises to come!
DÍA MUNDIAL DE LOS OCÉANOS
Las comunidades pesqueras de la zona son quienes han visto al Golfo Dulce transformarse a través de los años. Su recuperación ha sido lenta pero ahora más que nunca están comprometidos con verlo resurgir.
David y Daisy son piangueros artesanales, han construido su vida y su familia con los manglares como pilar. Por ello luchan día a día por asegurarse que sus acciones contribuyan a que estos manglares se mantegan vivos por incontables años más.
Su relato y el de 7 pescadores más los cautivaran en nuestro documental "Unidos por el Golfo Dulce". Próximamente disponible en nuestros canales de FB y Youtube. No te lo pierdas, esta semana de los océanos aún tiene muchas sorpresas más

THE LOCAL STORY
(Español abajo)
Overfishing, pollution and climate change cause an unprecedented destructive impact on our
seas, and local fishing communities are among the first to feel that weight.
Artisanal fisherman Edwin Artavia felt his livelihood threatened here on the Osa Peninsula of
Costa Rica. He, among others, take action to fight and protect the ocean they call home.
Coming soon, learn more about his story and the story of the communities connected by their
dependance and love for the Golf Dulce in “Unidos por el Golfo Dulce,” a documentary by Osa
Conservation.
LA HISTORIA LOCAL
La sobrepesca, la contaminación y el cambio climático están causando un impacto destructivo,
sin precedentes, en nuestros mares, y las comunidades pesqueras locales son las primeras en
sentir este peso.
El pescador artesanal Edwin Artavia sintió que su sustento se veía amenazado aquí en la
Península de Osa de Costa Rica. Él, entre otros, toma medidas para luchar y proteger el
océano que llaman hogar.
Próximamente, aprende más sobre su historia y la historia de las comunidades conectadas por
su amor al Golfo Dulce en "Unidos por el Golfo Dulce", un documental de Osa Conservation .

🐢ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL!
(Español abajo)
After 60 days of incubation, these green turtle hatchlings are ready to charge across the beach and find their way to the 🌊 sea!
To minimize the number of baby turtles being eaten by predators, the babies leave the nest all at once. Although they find strength in numbers while leaving the nest, it is each baby for themselves once they're in the water.
🐢 TODOS PARA UNO Y UNO PARA TODOS!
Después de 60 días de incubación estas tortuguitas verdes están listas para emprender su camino al 🌊 mar!
Para reducir el número de tortuguitas comidas por los depredadores, todas las tortuguitas salen del nido al mismo tiempo. A pesar de encontrar fuerza en número al salir del nido, cada tortuguita verá por su propio bien una vez llegando al agua.

CLEANING 🌊 THE 🌊 NURSERY!
And munching away at the algae! This Cortez angelfish (Pomachanthus zonipectus) cleans the algae off the corals at the nursery. 🐠🐠🐠 These passive fish are often found in coral reefs. They also feed on sponges and worms.
Osa Conservation helps Raising Coral to clean the algae off growing corals in their nursery every month, though it is nice to have a helper! 👍

Geoffroy’s spider monkey! Repost from @mongabay
•
This week, we're talking about an animal that has three arms (kind of)! That's the Geoffroy's spider monkey, which uses its tail to get around in the trees. This animal is found in South America, and travels in large groups.
Special thanks to Osa Conservation for sharing this footage with us.
