BREEDING AND RELEASING SEA TURTLES FOR CONSERVATION IN VASHAFARU

Sea turtles are one of the most beloved creatures of the ocean, but their populations have been rapidly declining due to human activities such as habitat loss, fishing, and pollution. To address this issue, My House Maldives in Vashafaru has launched a sea turtle conservation program, which involves breeding and releasing sea turtles to help protect and preserve their populations in the Maldives.

The program begins with collecting eggs from sea turtle nests on the beach, which are then taken to a hatchery at the guest house for incubation. The hatchlings are closely monitored and cared for until they are strong enough to be released into the ocean. This process not only helps increase the number of sea turtles in the area but also ensures that they have a better chance of survival in the wild.

The conservation program has had a positive impact on the community as well, with locals getting involved and taking ownership of the project. The guest house has also partnered with local schools to educate students on sea turtle conservation and inspire them to protect the ocean and its inhabitants.

Breeding and releasing sea turtles for conservation in Vashafaru with My House Maldives is a wonderful example of how tourism can be used as a force for good in the world. It not only helps protect and preserve sea turtles, but also raises awareness and inspires action to protect our oceans and their inhabitants.
