Green sea turtle saved from extinction in major conservation victory
The green sea turtle population has rebounded so successfully that several populations have been removed from the Endangered Species List maintained by the International Union for Conservation of Nature ($\text{IUCN}$). This success specifically applies to populations in places like Florida and the Pacific coast of Mexico. Nesting numbers have surged by several hundred percent in key areas. By securing Marine Protected Areas and guarding vulnerable beaches, conservationists have proven that dedicated human action can reverse the decline of threatened species.
