Hello, it has been almost one month now which has been just
enough to get used to the working environment at the Wildlife Conservation and
Rehabilitation Centre located at the Banyan Tree Resort. Everyone is so amazing
here and I have enjoyed every single day, I have learned and done a lot
I have helped with the sea turtle monitoring activities, beach
profiling and with the daily care of Tiko, which is a juvenile hawksbill sea turtle
in rehabilitation at the centre. My favourite activity is the fresh water
turtles (terrapins) monitoring: I am involved in setting up the traps in the
Intendance wetland and in checking them daily for any terrapins. Those that are
found in our traps are brought at the centre, measured, weighted, identified, marked
and then released in the same pond where they were found in. 
There is so much ahead of me and I’m looking forward to new
experiences in these next two months.
