Eco-Warriors Face Dangers In The Wild To Protect Turtle Species 24th Feb 2020, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Compared to green (sea) turtles that nest between 5 and 12 times a year, from April to October, the river terrapins have a very short nesting season. They nest only once a year, in a season that lasts between 2.5 to 6 weeks.
And unlike green turtles that lay an average of 100 eggs each time, the river terrapins lay between 25 and 35 eggs each time. So we don't have much time to wait/lose, because this is the only period our Terrapin Guardians and rangers are able to secure terrapin eggs for co...

Today We Take A Break From Posting Turtle Posts To.. 21st Feb 2020, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Today we take a break from posting turtle posts to share this gem of a find with our non-profit counterparts :)
This social media content calendar by Angie Gensler must be one of our best investments this year. We've only started using it for a month, but it has taken hours and hours off our shoulders! You may know that #TeamTCS is small, hence we rely on our interns to help with some seemingly simple but important tasks, e.g. posting regular updates across our social media sites. But what happ...
