EXHILARATING.

📍 Mataking Island, Semporna
Crystal clear shallow waters are I would have to say my favourite place to be on a reef, more so when it is filled with turtles! On this particular dive I encountered over 60 turtles, around 55 green turtles and about 5 hawksbills! Seeing 60 + turtles on one dive is truly quite remarkable considering they are an endangered species. It is incredibly rare in some places around the world to see either a green or a hawksbill turtle, however the waters surrounding Mataking Island in Malaysian Borneo have some of the highest turtle populations numbers out of anywhere I have ever been. @traccborneo has been assessing the population numbers of turtles in this region for years, their numbers are astounding and incredibly unique!

hawksbill turtle population 在 Fabio Grangeon - 法比歐 Facebook 的精選貼文
Beautiful hawksbill turtle , shot in Ladyelliot Island lagoon. She is considered by many to be the most beautiful of sea turtles for her colorful shell. But their population has declined more than 80% in the last century due mainly to the trade of their carapace, but also because of meat and eggs consumption in some asian countries, pollution, and dynamite fishing. 😔.
That’s so sad to see so many species in danger of extinction because of us, humans..
