It Is That Time Of The Year Again. Now Is The Nest..

Now is the nesting season of river terrapins, and we are all hands on deck here at Kg. Pasir Gajah. Our Terrapin Guardians have been busy setting up two campsites—one at Pasir Pok Yok and another at Pasir Pok Leh. (Watch the video below to see the campsites👇🏻)

From clearing the area to pitching the tents, every step has been carefully planned to create a safe and comfortable space for our team to patrol the nesting banks and secure the terrapin eggs, all of these for the long nights of TWO months!

We are so excited to see how this season unfolds, and we hope you are too! Stay tuned for more updates and stories from us 🙌🏻

🗣️ Musim yang dinanti-nanti sudah tiba!

Musim persarangan tuntung sungai sudah tiba, dan kami sibuk membuat persiapan di Kg. Pasir Gajah. Geng Tuntung berjaya menyiapkan dua tapak perkhemahan—satu di Pasir Pok yok dan satu lagi di Pasir Pok Leh. (Tengok hasilnya di video bawah ini 👇🏻)

Dari proses bersihkan kawasan sehingga pasang khemah, semuanya dirancang dengan teliti untuk pastikan tempat ini selesa dan selamat. Kami akan berteduh di sini sepanjang malam, selama DUA bulan supaya kami boleh menjaga tebing persarangan dan memastikan telur tuntung selamat daripada ancaman!

Kami sangat teruja menantikan musim ini, dan berharap anda turut sama bersemangat! Jangan lupa ikuti perkembangan terkini dan cerita menarik daripada kami 🙌🏻
