Baby Turtle Release at Mercure Resort Sanur - Oct 12, 2011
The serene Mertasari beach of Mercure Resort Sanur has miraculously attracted a female sea turtle to lay her eggs last 31 July 2011.
At night, she had created a ?nest? to lay her 102 eggs, which was recognized by our Security guard on duty in the each area. On the day after, with a help from Mr. Agung Tresna, an expert from Bali Turtle Society/ProFauna, we immediately relocate the fragile eggs to a saver place. Some of our guests also involved in the turtle rescue activity. He had guided us on how to build a save nest for the egg hatchling. The nest should be surrounded by fence to guard them from predators such as dogs, snakes, etc. It should be covered on the top, to protect them from over-heat and rain.
