    Turtle Hero

    This woman is a hero to the wild sea turtles - leather backs in particular. Here's to her, proving everyone wrong about one person not being able to make a difference. The world will have more turtles to show for it!

    What a remarkable story. She is a true hero. I'm glad she is getting
    other islands to start their own conservation places.


    "I love being crazy, you know?" she said, laughing. "Crazy with a passion, crazy with a dream -- totally environmentally crazy."
