Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
In continuation of the earlier note (see Meena et al., 2007) on sea turtle hatcheries in Kachchh, Gujarat (Figure 1), the efforts made thereafter have been geared primarily towards increasing public awareness for the conservation of sea turtles (Figure 2). A flag hoisting ceremony conducted on Republic Day, 26th January 2007 at Mandvi-Kutch attracted considerable attention. The theme of the ceremony was that sea turtles are our guests and they should be welcome on Mandvi coast. Such awareness programmes have encouraged support to forest officials by the local community in conservation activities, for example, conserving turtle eggs along the coast.
