Sea Turtle in Tanjung Keluang

 

Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Tanjung Keluang has been established for only... let me try to remember. One and a half years? More or less. Notice the sea turtle on the right? It's about one and a half years old as well. It's relatively small, but when released sea turtles can grow bigger than that. Its brothers and sisters have been released last year. Why is this one being kept here? As a study to see how big a sea turtle might grow in the preservation center. On the left, you can see a grown sea turtle (preserved, as this one died some time ago).
