REAVLEY, Circuit Judge:
Appellants argue that the district court's four-level upward adjustment of the offense points was unwarranted and produced an erroneous sentence for their conviction of the illegal capture of a turtle. That turns on whether the record will support the trial court's finding that this Kemp's ridley female sea turtle is "substantial" in relation to the total population of sea turtles. We find no error and affirm.
