The Florida Sea Turtle Life History Posters Project was funded by a grant from the Sea Turtle License Plate Program. This project involved the development and distribution of a life history poster for each of the five species of sea turtles found in Florida. A set of posters is being provided to Florida sea turtle groups, rehabilitation and educational facilities, schools, environmental centers, libraries, and other groups requesting the materials.

STC has received an over whelming response to the posters and has distributed all the posters available by mail. There are several facilities that are now setup as distribution points in Florida where you can pick up a set of posters:
