Something’s brewing… @turtlespot

If you touch a sea turtle in Taiwan, you could be fined up to US$10,000. But what if there are other ways to appreciate them?

On #ZoomInZoomOut, Chia-ling Fong of @turtlespot explains how everyone can pitch in to protect sea turtles. Full episode: https://t.co/Jv83kEB27I

Will be presenting in #APCRS2023 about our thoughts on applying intensive in-water survey and photo-ID to detect the abundace, residency and fidelity of green turtles at their primary foraging habitat. Collaborating with volunteers and local experts is the key. @turtlespot

Sighting report of sea turtle with tag from Northern Taiwan! 👀 We contacted @mt_seaturtle with number “JP2129” and found out this was the young turtle they released back in 2019! 🌊 A migration distance of at least 2000km!

[PIP@小笠原海洋センター公式 @mt_seaturtle]

友人から台湾北東部でタグの付いたカメを見つけた！という連絡があり、調べてみると小笠原で2018年に生まれて、2019年11月に放流された個体だということが判明👀✨
2000㎞以上の長い旅。
ウミガメってすごいなぁ…。

📸 Islandwide drone survey of sea turtles on Liuchiu on 2021.07.09 ➡️ 805 individuals ‼️ This is the highest recorded number so far compared to all previous surveys. [Thread 1/5]

This video was taken in Lyudao (綠島) of a #turtle (I'm sure his name is Lucky) swimming alongside us after a dive to the largest single coral in the world (Big Mushroom)! We've been lucky this year and seen a turtle on nearly every dive #Biodiversity #CoralReefs #Taiwan

Aziz the Hawksbill turtle in Green Island, Taiwan!

[Aziz J Mulla @AzizJMulla]

Although we are here for the #CoralBleaching I was lucky enough to stumble across a new #Turtle sighting in #Taiwan and happily named this special one after myself 😂 - Aziz means “might and strength” exactly what our marine ecosystem requires right now @turtlespot #Biodiversity

We printed our poster for @ISTS_Cartagena but the conference got cancelled due to COVID-19. Today, @DaphneHohZW presented the same poster in the Development of #CitizenScience Forum @ Taipei, Taiwan and people are loving it! #Reuse

Try sea turtle Photo-ID at home!

Google 3D animal allows you to view life-sized animals in your home! You can even try to do Photo-ID 😜

Tutorial in thread. Try it now!
