The Protection of Xcacel Xcacelito was processed in 1990 based on the investigations of the Research Center of Quintana Roo and the works of renowned tortugueros.
 

Grupo Gema (Grupo Ecologista del Mayab) led by Araceli Dominguez, together with a local and national movement with international repercussions, fought for the protection of Xcacel Xcacelito, after 8 years, the authority responded negatively, arguing that Xcacel's terrestrial ecosystems were represented in other parts of the state but did not consider that there is no other undeveloped place, which, like Xcacel Xcacelito, is associated with the most important sea turtle nesting beach in the Atlantic for loggerhead and white species.

This association makes Xcacel unique and unique in the state and in the world

In the elaboration of the Ecological Ordinance of 1994, former Governor Villanueva, prevented the marine turtle specialist and Xcacel, M. in C. Julio Zurita, from participating.

In that battle we waged against the whim of a corrupt and authoritarian governor, we only managed to include the urgency and need to protect Xcacel as recommendations.

Join with your firm, join to write to Semarnat, join to forward on social networks that Xcacel Xcacelito can not develop. We have requested an information meeting to present our comments and observations on the La Calma project whose Bitacora number is: 23QR2018T0010

IF WE GAIN TAJAMAR WE CAN WIN XCACEL FOR THE TURTLES AND THE COMMUNITY.
