Pagudpud Pawikan Conservation Group / PNA / MANILA BULLETIN
A team from the Pagudpud Pawikan Conservation Group (PPCG), which is composed of public and private stakeholders, patrols the Pagudpud shoreline, a favorite nesting ground of marine turtles.
The turtle eggs are expected to hatch in the second or third week of January next year after a female green sea turtle was spotted in the area last November 24.
Roehl Tamargo, an active member of the Pagudpud Lifeguards Association and a trained PPCG responder, said Thursday they needed to relocate the sea turtle eggs as they expect them to threatened when the tide rises, and by predators, as crablets and dogs.
