Name and adopt a turtle
Symbolically adopting a sea turtle is a great way to help protect sea turtles.
Name and adopt one of our identified wild sea turtles or adopt one of our current turtle patients to support their recovery. You can adopt a turtle in your own name or as a meaningful gift to someone who cares about protecting marine creatures and ecosystems.
Choose between:
- Symbolically naming and adopting an identified wild sea turtle
- Adopting a turtle patient currently being cared for at one of our rescue centres
Why your sea turtle adoption is so important:
By adopting a sea turtle, you will help Olive Ridley Project to rescue and treat more sick and injured sea turtles, and release them back into the wild. Your sea turtle adoption will also help fund our clinical & scientific research, as well as our educational outreach work, to prevent sea turtles from harm and better understand how to protect them and their habitats.
Your digital adoption package includes:
- A personalised digital adoption certificate
- A fact-sheet about the sea turtles
- Email updates on your adopted sea turtle*
- Your adopted sea turtle featured on our website
- A gift card for your gift recipient
*Please note that we cannot guarantee sightings of wild sea turtles
What you support when you symbolically adopt a turtle
When you symbolically adopt a turtle, you’re helping to protect sea turtles and their habitats.
Your support makes possible our rescue and conservation medicine work, advances clinical and scientific research, and helps us raise awareness through educational outreach.
If you choose to adopt a turtle patient, you’ll contribute directly to its care and recovery, and ensure we never have to turn away a sick or injured turtle.
