Ninja turtle at Segari



Ninja turtle.. the famous cartoon during my childhood. I have chance to see the real turtle during my visit the segari turtle farm. This Farm is a goverment project, purpose to collect the turtle egg from the wild and hatch it on the farm and release to the nature when the turtle are mature. The farm is deep inside the oil plam estate on the beachfront. The farm is here the lumut about 20km from lumut. The hatching place are not allow to enter. We cant only see the turtle on the pond. There have a pond to keep the baby turtle but cant touch on it becsuse is fencing up. I see there are only one type of turtle on the farm.
The goverment effort to protect the turtle are not fully enforment. Now there still have turtle egg are sale in the open market at the kota bharu and terengganu market. So goverment need do more effort to protect this "cute-cute" turtle.
