And Coyotes (we saw 3 on the sand flats in about an hour). The estuary is filled with migratory and nesting herons, shorebirds such as curlews, godwits and others, Ospreys, and fish. But beautiful! The fishermen here grow oysters (they’re delicious and cost about 25 cents apiece).Ĭlaudia and Javier Villivicencio with Carl Safina and turtle tagged for research. There’s a little tourist place here called Camp Rene that has very cheap accommodations and was almost empty when we were there. Today Javier took us to a gorgeous estuary called Estero Coyote. This is the third in a series he is writing from Baja Mexico this week. But for Javier, they’re worth really protecting.Įditor’s Note: Carl Safina is a Pew Fellow, MacArthur Fellow, Guggenheim Fellow, writer of 5 books, ecologist, marine conservationist and member of One World One Ocean’s science advisory team. Turtles are protected in Mexico, but they’re still poached for the black market.
