Internship week 4! The Importance of Resilience
WHO
WE ARE
We are a non profit organization that aims to protect manta rays and mobulas in the Mexican Caribbean. We are a branch of the UK non profit, Manta Trust.
WHAT
WE DO
We take a multidisciplinary approach to the conservation of manta rays and their habitat through science and research, while raising awareness and providing education to the community and stakeholders.
WHY
WE DO IT
Globally, little is known about manta rays. It is vital we gain a better understanding of these gentle giants and their habitat in the Caribbean Sea to ensure they are protected into the future.
MANTAS
OF MYSTERY
Manta Rays are one of the most charismatic creatures that inhabit our oceans.
Many aspects of the lives of these intelligent and curious animals still remain a mystery.
