Penemuan Bangkai Tuntung Sungai Betina💔
Baru-baru ini, terdapat bangkai seekor Tuntung Sungai betina, dianggarkan berumur sekitar 20 tahun, ditemui di tapak pengambilan pasir sungai di Kemaman.

#Throwback to last Thursday when we spent a short time with students from Tadika Sri Pintar Bestari, Kemaman 👍🏻

29th Jun 2024, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
It’s the painted terrapin nesting season! 🐢
We’ve incubated close to 30 painted terrapin eggs in the past two days. And while we were already in the river, we removed a huge discarded fishing net too!
Discarded fishing gear endanger river and painted terrapins and other wildlife, hence it’s important to remove them before terrapins get caught and drown in them 😕

12th Jun 2024, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Saving the environment, “one pot at a time.”
Some time in February, five students from Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology (TAR UMT) held a recycling event to encourage tree planting.
In the programme, the students helped to process plastic bottles into little pots to hold succulents, which were given to visitors who donated any sum of money or 3 plastic bottles.
In the 2-day event, they raised more than RM3,600 which they very generously donated to TCS! 🐢

11th Jun 2024, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
This black boy owns the sweetest smile which can melt anyone's heart🥹.
This freshwater turtle is called Black Marsh Turtle or more known as the Smiling Terrapin due to its jaw line that is curved upwards.
This turtle can be found in marshes, swamps and ponds. Broad head and strong jaws gives this terrapin a strength to crunch mollusc and carrion bones which makes it a carnivorous species.
The juvenile has white spots on its head which remains in an adult female and fades in males.
Don't...
