From the Dunes to the Deep: Protecting Sea Turtles on the Outer Banks

It's nesting season for sea turtles on the Outer Banks, meaning dedicated volunteers of the Network of Endangered Sea Turtles (N.E.S.T.) are on the frontlines working diligently to protect new nests. In this episode, Town of Duck citizen Miriam Rollin, who also serves as the Social Media Chair for N.E.S.T., tells us all about Outer Banks sea turtles, what the organization does to care for and protect sea turtles, as well as what you can do to contribute to the effort. From the moment N.E.S.T. discovers a hidden nest to the triumphant release of a rehabilitated turtle back into the wild, N.E.S.T. is there to help conserve and protect this endangered species.
