Every Month In 2023, We'd Either Encountered Wild .. 8th Jan 2024, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Every month in 2023, either we encountered wild turtles on the road or received calls from the locals if they find any that needs our help.
One time, a local surrendered a softshell turtle and after inspection, it is healthy and good to go ππ»
The softshell turtle weighs 12kg. With the help of one of our Terrapin Guardian, we released it back into its own habitat.

Final River Survey Of 2023. It Has Been Raining In.. 31st Dec 2023, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Final river survey of 2023! π
It has been raining in Kemaman for more than 10 days, and many river banks are flooded (as evidenced by the colour of the grass in the first picture).
Yesterday, as soon as we had a pocket of good weather, our Terrapin Guardians went out to the river for a quick survey.
As expected, all the river banks that are frequented by terrapins were submerged. The team also removed a HUGEEE discarded fishing gear to prevent it from interfering with the upstream movement...

The Box Turtle That We Rescued From The Roadside M.. 27th Dec 2023, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
The box turtle that we rescued from the roadside mid-November has passed away despite our effort to give it the best possible care π
We drove the turtle to Kuala Terengganu where our former intern, Dr. Lim Wei Li is currently attached to.
Due to the damage to the turtle's beak, a feeding tube was inserted to facilitate feeding of meds and feeds. Metal pins were placed to support the fractured beak.
A week later, Dr. Lim noticed that the box turtle kept gaining weight (indicative that feed ...

On Our Way Back From Kg. Pasir Gajah Last Thursday.. 19th Nov 2023, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
On our way back from Kg. Pasir Gajah last Thursday, we came across a box turtle that was run over by a vehicle.
It was bleeding profusely so we brought it back to the office, and then subsequently removed even more blood clots.
Unfortunately, all vet clinics in Kemaman do not have experience treating reptiles (we've asked many times in the past when our terrapins had health issues).
So yesterday, we drove 2 hours to send it to a vet clinic in Kuala Terengganu for treatment. Our former intern ...

Siapa masih ingat bangkai tuntung sungai yang ditanam 3 bulan yang lepas?

Walaupun hujan, kami tetap melakukan kerja dan memastikan semua tulang dibersihkan dengan baik supaya dapat menyambungkannya semula dan diletakkan di dalam galeri kami.
Lebih menyedihkan, kami telah menjumpai mata kail di dalam tinja tuntu...
