Endangered turtle nests protected during peak nesting season

Endangered turtle nests protected during peak nesting season

By Maya Fernando · May 27, 2026

Wildlife officers and night patrol volunteers have established guarded nesting corridors along key beaches as endangered marine turtles return to lay eggs.

Lighting restrictions and visitor education campaigns aim to reduce disturbance, while hatchery teams relocate vulnerable clutches when erosion risk is high.

Conservation groups urge tourists to follow guided viewing rules and avoid flash photography near nesting sites.
