On December 24, we rescued a sea turtle which was then treated at TCEC (Tutle Conservation and Education Center) for one month in treatment after giving adhesive to the wounded grouper due to the impact of a hard object which is currently still being watched for its health development while still providing fresh fish food. With the provision of shallow pool water to make it easier for turtles to breathe because they are still in a limp condition and without both front swing limbs. The turtle is in a healthy condition and less active due to the trauma of waves and strong currents before, consecutively on January 16 and 17 January the rescue team received a call to help 2 stranded sea turtles on Kuta beach Bali, a type of Olive Ridley turtle with a weak condition, still placed in the treatment pool to get supervision from the medical team to provide information on the development of sea turtle health.
In addition to handling sea turtles in captivity, the activities in captivity also receive visits from tourists who are enthusiastic to see and get to know about protected animals from the guide team will provide complete information about the existence of sea turtles in captivity, the rescue team will always be alert to receive sudden calls for emergency calls, and the team also performs maintenance activities such as cleaning ponds, feeding, and providing medical action from the team of doctors at TCEC. the place is always open to visits from schools that conduct field trips and classrooms are prepared for students to receive information presentations about TCEC and sea turtles, followed by a screening of a sea turtle documentary.
Accepted interns will also help the team to maintain and provide information at the tcec, as well as activities to monitoring at the sea every 2 times a week while collecting seaweed to give green turtles. In addition to green turtles, there are also hawksbill and Olive Ridley turtles.
The team will collect information from the rescue results and will be provided by the medical team to follow up on the health of the turtles, the information will continue to be updated to see the health progress of the turtles to be prepared before the turtles handled by tcec are released back to the sea.
Many interesting activities can be found to take an active role in being part of the conservation and preservation of animals caring for the surrounding environment by regularly cleaning the beach from plastic waste that poses a threat to sea turtles and other marine life to be taken to the recycling center. Visits to schools provide information in order to inform the next generation to protect the environment.
