Our First World Turtle Day at TCC was celebrated yesterday in honour of all the children at Mangkuk Village in Setiu.
A day with Pat and Alan Koval
We hosted two more visitors, Pat and Alan Koval from Canada who spent a day with us yesterday (19 May 2010). Pat is the Chairman of WWF Canada and is also a board member in the Turtle Survival Alliance.
Bernard Devaux of SOPTOM visits TCC
Soon after Gerald and Guundie left, we were honoured by a visit from Bernard Devaux from France. Bernard is well-known in the turtle community. He owns the Tortoise Village in Gonfaron, France and has also established Tortoise Villages in Senegal and Madagascar.
Gerald and Guundie Kuchling @ TCC
Our good friends Gerald and Guundie Kuchling were with us @ TCC in Mangkuk from 6-11 May 2010. They arrived on the same evening Pelf and I got back from India, so you can imagine how hectic it has been for us.
We have been busy!
Pelf and I were away in India from 20 April – 6 May, mainly to attend the 30th International Sea Turtle Symposium in Goa. I presented a paper entitled “16 Years of Running A Marine Turtle Conservation Project: How Do We Measure Success?”
