The turtle hatcheries in Bentota in Sri Lanka is a revolution

January 8, 2025 8:02pm CST
Sri Lanka had been successful in propagating turtles. In Bentota there is a lovely turtle hatchery that has really made a mark. The baby turtles are brought and there are small water bodies in which they are propagated. The large animals cannot feed on them. Now the population of turtles have increased.
