Much of our current research is on coral reef status and health, conservation strategies, restoration techniques, and management.
Early March in Qatari Waters. For our male Hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), this means mating season. He’s out on the hunt looking for potential females around Halul. Soon his hatchlings will be making their way from the beaches of Qatar back to the open ocean.
Distinguished by their narrow, pointed beaks and distinctive carapace with overlapping scales, they have been hunted for their shells and as a result are now classified as CR (Critically endangered) on the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Natura) Red List.
Found mainly in tropical waters, predominantly in coral reef habitats, they feed on sponges, jelly fish, and sea anemones and are essential in maintaining the health of seas grass and coral reef habitats.
During the past few months we have given presentations on our work to members of Qatar's Natural History Group, both of which are highlighted in their Newsletter- Check it out!
Those local to Qatar, the QNHG is a great way to learn about and explore the natural sites around the country through rambles and presentations. .org
