Turtle Foundation – Leatherback turtle hatchling release on Sipora, Indonesia, March 2018

Turtle Foundation recently discovered a nesting site of the critically endangered Northeast Indian Ocean population of leatherback sea turtles on Sipora, one of the Mentawai Islands off Sumatra, Indonesia. Unfortunately, the turtles there are heavily exploited for meat and eggs. Since December we have been protecting the leatherback turtles of Sipora in collaboration with the local community.
