Were Hosting Dr. Daniel Gaillard And His Students ..

We’re hosting Dr. Daniel Gaillard and his students from the Dalton State College, Georgia, USA for a week.

As soon as they arrived, we put them to work! We excavated some nests, recovered some terrapin hatchlings and we also weighed and measured them.

Then we set up 2 traps in the village, hoping to catch some turtles. Can’t wait to see what’s caught tomorrow!

Turtle Conservation Society

The Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia was established in October 2011. The aim of the society is to bring about the recovery of depleted wild populations of turtles, with particular reference to freshwater turtles, in Malaysia through partnerships with like-minded organizations, individuals and local communities as well as through its own programs.
