02 July 2021 | 08:19:00 AM

A green sea turtle or chelonia mydas has been found laying around 100 eggs on a beach in Quy Nhon City in the southern central province of Binh Dinh.



According to the Binh Dinh Fisheries Board, on June 29, some people in Nhon Hai Commune saw the 60-kilo turtle laying eggs on Mui Con Beach.

They then informed the department of the case. The board cordoned off the egg-laying area and asked local residents to protect the egg nest.

On the following day, under the instructions of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, local authorities relocated the nest to another place to avoid being swept away by flood tides.

Besides Mui Con Beach, Hai Giang and Hon Kho beaches are also places for turtles to lay eggs. Sea turtles’ hatching season often lasts between April and October with the peak time ranging from July to September.
