Sea turtles are protected under state and federally laws. 16410 8199 Grant to determine the movement, behavior, and origin of foraging grounds of the subadult loggerhead sea turtle using acoustic telemetry and stable isotope analysis. This grant supports objectives in the recovery of the Western Atlantic loggerhead turtle that is protected under the endangered species act. Expenses are for the completion of this study that was funded in 2021. 0 2484 Additional funds received are for analysis of green turtle diet for other researchers in Florida ($9045) and expenses ($6814) are for the analysis, data entry, and reporting of that work which supports knowledge of local habitat and health of endangered green turtles. Outreach activity expenses (travel, setup, materials - brochures, social media sites) to reach the general public through participation in ocean-minded festivals with education booths and presentations and ecological meetings that are open to the general public and travel funds used to collaborate with other researchers on non-profit sea turtle research projects around the state of Florida (Inwater Research Group, The Florida Hawksbill Project) (expenses ($9570 dollars). 9045 16384 Grant to determine the proximate nutritional value of macroalgae consumed by juvenile green turtles. Research is important for turtles in the wild as well as rehabilitation facilities that want to provide the most complementary feeding for turtles' recovery under their care. Funding is the initial 50% of grant upon award and the 25% awarded after meeting 6-month grant requirements. The study is still underway at this time. 14873 11130 38197 Mario Mota Chair BOD 1.0 0 0 0 Daryl Adkins BOD Secretary/Treasurer 4 0 0 0 Karen Holloway-Adkins Executive Director 35 27221 0 0 Laura Herren Researcher 0.25 230 0 0 Kori Johnsen Researcher 6 5620 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Daryl Adkins 141 Atlantic Ave Indialantic FL 329032101 3212664597 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 16685 63530 83584 56233 40773 260805 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 16685 63530 83584 56233 40773 260805 260805 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 49 0 243 0 292 261097 0 0.99888 0.99832 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 in past years this was t-shirt sales.
