Abstract:
Turtle is one of the marine fauna that is protected because its existence is threatened with extinction. The high exploitation of turtles will threaten the sustainability of turtles in the future. Turtles are hunted a lot because of the high selling value of turtle body parts. The uniqueness of the shells on turtles to be used as accessories, until they are preserved for display is a common thing. In addition, the extinction of turtles also occurs because turtles are often trapped in fishing nets and turtles are carried by strong currents to hit coral which causes many turtle carcasses to be f

Abstract:
Turtles are one of the reptile animals that can migrate long distances along the Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Southeast Asia. The purpose of turtle migration is to mate, find spawning locations and to find food. Sea turtles have an important role in maintaining the balance of the marine ecosystem. However, the high utilization of sea turtles by humans causes the turtle population to decline. One of the conservation sites that help the government program is in Serangan, Denpasar Bali, namely the TCEC (Turtle Conservation and Education Center), where there are several types of turtles such as

Recent studies showed that regional abundance of loggerhead and leatherback turtles could oscillate interannually according to oceanographic and climatic conditions. The Western Mediterranean is an important fishing area for the Spanish drifting longline fleet, which mainly targets swordfish, bluefin tuna, and albacore. Due to the spatial overlapping in fishing activity and turtle distribution, there is an increasing sea turtle conservation concern. The main goal of this study is to analyse the interannual bycatch of loggerhead and leatherback turtles by the Spanish Mediterranean longline fish

This study aims to determine the percentage of hatching success of turtle eggs in semi-natural and natural nests at TCC (Turtle Conservation Community), Lombok, determine the physical characteristics of natural and semi-natural nests of turtle eggs, and determine the quality of hatchlings produced in natural and semi-natural nests. The research method used is the descriptive exploration method, including determi

Sea turtles are marine biota that have an important role in the lives of coastal communities, but their existence has decreased due to threats to their habitat. The protection status of sea turtles has been regulated nationally and internationally, where they are fully protected. One location with potential sea turtle habitat in West Sulawesi is Ba'batoa Lapeo Beach in Polewali Mandar Regency. This is evidenced by the existence of community groups that carry out sea turtle conservation activities.

Road mortality poses a major threat to turtle populations. Several studies have suggested that the terrestrial movements associated with nesting increase this risk for females. The Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre (OTCC) is home to the Kawartha Turtle Trauma Centre, which admits 900 or more turtles a year, with road injuries the primary cause of admission. We tested the hypothesis that road mortality in turtles is female-biased using data from injured Midland Painted Turtles (Chrysemys picta marginata), Snapping Turtles (Chelydra serpentina), Blanding’s Turtles (Emydoidea blandingii), and No

Abstract:
Climate change is a major concern to sea turtle populations, notably in terms of temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) and sea level rise. TSD is a biological mechanism that decides the sex of turtle hatchlings dependent on hatching temperature, and with global warming, sex ratios are becoming increasingly imbalanced. Furthermore, increasing sea levels endanger vital nesting locations, aggravating the threat to turtle populations. This article investigates these climate-related concerns while also looking at various habitat restoration strategies. Strategies such as collaborating with

ABSTRACT
 Turtles are reptiles that live in the sea and are able to migrate over long distances along the Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Southeast Asia. Currently the number of turtle populations in nature has greatly decreased. This population decline is caused by natural factors and human activities that endanger the population directly or indirectly. At this time the tagging set technique (ID tag code) is a method that is often used to detect the presence of turtles by attaching tags to female turtles who are landing to lay eggs on the beach or while in captivity or the discovery of t
