Royal Births a Plenty - 5th June 2020
23 Royal turtles have hatched in south-west Cambodia this year, topping the total of the past three years.
Officially named the Southern River terrapin, the animal has been designated the country’s national reptile.
Having been poached for its eggs and meat, which are considered a delicacy, the species was previously believed extinct. However, in 2001, a small population was found living along the banks of the Sre-Ambel river.
Thanks to a Royal decree ordering protection of the turtle’s natural habitat, conservationists have been successful in managing the local area. Damaging activities such as the removal of soil and sand have been forbidden, allowing the turtle community to flourish.
Alongside this success, another critically endangered species, the Cantor's giant soft shell turtle, has successfully laid many eggs. So far this year, an amazing 824 hatchlings have arrived, offering hope for the future of these animals.
