the conservation project these 20 something year old young men were involved in because when I traveled the coast of Mexico 20 plus years ago I didn't see a single turtle until I got past El Salvador. Now you have to watch out for them all along the Mexican Gold Coast and the Sea of Cortez. If you thump one, it's tough on your bottom paint. We gave to guys 40 bucks US to fuel the ATV's and such and was glad to do it. Mexico has come a long way in the last 20 years. I just hope they keep going in the right direction.
