foundations & service groups
Some foundations and conservations for the Hawksbill sea turtles in Thailand are The Sea Turtle Conservation Center of the Royal Thai Navy which helps save sea turtles by educating people and breeding more sea turtles so that their population increases...
Another service group or conservation group that works alongside The Sea Turtle Conservation Center of the Royal Thai Navy is the Koh Tao Local Community. They help by releasing sea turtles into the sea and protecting them when they waddle towards the ocean and start their 'adulthood' since they usually get eaten by seagulls and birds.
How can you help?
✧ By joining one of the service groups / conservations for saving sea turtles in Thailand (Koh Tao Local Community or the Thai Navy Conservation)
✧ By not buying anything from poachers that sell products made out of turtles
✧ By raising awareness through posters, websites (like what I am doing) flyers, etc about sea turtles
✧ By protecting sea turtles when they make their way towards the ocean
Main: By not buying anything from poachers that sell products made out of turtle or by finding another job for poachers
Positive: The main positive thing about stopping illegal poaching or not buying goods from poachers is that sea turtles won't be in risk anymore of poachers selling their skin, shell or eggs (Well-being and Nature) The other positive thing about finding a better job for poachers is that they won't illegally trade / eat or sell products made out of turtle (a lot of this is happening in China.)
Negative: There are no negative things because if poachers stop illegal trading (then the turtles would benefit from that) and the poachers will still have another better job (economy) instead of selling turtle products.
