Save Turtles!

Hi Guys,

We are very lucky that Malaysia has many turtles with four species namely Leatherback, Green, Hawksbill and Olive Ridley turtles.  But sad to say that the number of turtles have 
dropped and some species has close to extinction.

How can we help to save the poor turtles?  Below are some ways to avoid them from extinction.

1. Reduce the use of plastic bags.

2. Help to pick up rubbish at the beach.

3. Do not eat turtle eggs.

4. Do not disturb or ride turtle on land or in the water.

5. Help support turtle conservation program.

6. Do not throw rubbish or plastic bags in the sea or river.

7. Avoid restaurant that serve turtle eggs or meat.

8. Learn about turtle and share the information with friends
