But he didnt find his way until years later when he was asked to go to a beach and saw a scene. “ I found a turtle cut up into pieces in a bucket, and its heart was still beating, Aranda said.There was nothing that Aranda could do to save the turtle. But ever since then, he has patrolled(巡逻) Puerto Vallartas beaches as an unofficial keeper of the sea turtle. Arandas conservation group, Vallarta Rescue, aiming to protect turtles, is located along Mexicos northwest Pacific beaches. From June to December, Aranda and his volunteers watch over the shoreline where turtles lay their egg s.Arandas group is non-profit and it relies entirely on private donations. To earn a living, Aranda works during the day as an ecotourism(生态旅游) boat driver. At sunset, he heads out to what he calls the perfect job in the perfect place.Twenty years ago, the Mexican government forbade commercial fishing of sea turtles. But Mexico still has one of the highest rates of turtle poaching(偷猎) in the world. Aranda believes the poaching business is not sustained(维持) by profit, because a single turtle egg sells for about 50 cents. “I think its how people feel eating something forbidden, he said. “They want to try what is illegal. They have seen their parents and their grandparents eat them, and its a way of th inking that is very hard to change.Changing the locals ideas is part of what drivers Aranda to stay awake during his night patrols in Puerto Vallarta.
