Alexander Gaos_ Post-nesting hawksbill turtle equipped with a satellite tag returning to the estuary in Bahia Jiquilisco, El Salvador. This hawksbill remained within Bahia Jiquilisco, moving into the bay’s inner canals after nesting. Several other hawksbills departed the species’ traditional coral reef habitat and migrated to this mangrove estuary. A 2011 study published by Biology Letters explains that adult hawksbill in the eastern Pacific are using estuaries such as this for foraging, presenting a never-before-seen life history paradigm that differs substantially from those exhibited by the species in other ocean regions, where hawksbills associate with coral and rocky reefs along the open-coasts. This research was spearheaded by several members of an international working group known as the Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Initiative ( http://www.hawksbill.org).

Alexander Goas_ Post-nesting hawksbill turtle equipped with a satellite tag returning to the sea in front of El Maculis, El Salvador. The hawksbill was released with members of the local community, as well as a local fishing cooperative. Both of these stakeholder groups play an important role in hawksbill conservation throughout the eastern Pacific. This turtle migrated to an inshore mangrove estuary off the coast of Honduras. A 2011 study published by Biology Letters explains that adult hawksbill in the eastern Pacific are using estuaries such as this for foraging, presenting a never-before-seen life history paradigm that differs substantially from those exhibited by the species in other ocean regions, where hawksbills associate with coral and rocky reefs along the open-coasts.

Marine biologists with the Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Initiative (Iniciativa Carey del Pacifico Oriental, or ICAPO) celebrate finding a very rare eastern Pacific hawksbill sea turtle in Reserva Natural Estero Padre Ramos, Nicaragua, July 2010 In a September 2010 study published in the international journal Oryx, researchers from more than 10 countries presented the results of a two-year, multi-national search for hawksbill sea turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata), which were previously thought to be functionally extinct in the region. This collaborative effort, called the Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Initiative (Iniciativa Carey del Pacifico Oriental, or ICAPO, in Spanish) and spearheaded by marine biologist Alexander Gaos, identified important nesting beaches and feeding areas, has described major threats to hawksbills in the region, and has even discovered aspects of hawksbill biology that were previously unknown to scientists.
