Adopt Terrapin Nest, Save Terrapins

Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia (TCS) carries out a River Terrapin Conservation Project in the Kemaman River, Terengganu. Through this project and with the collaboration with the local communities, a maximum number of river terrapin eggs are secured for incubation. Upon emergence, the river terrapin hatchlings are raised for approximately four to five months before they are also released into the river.

This year, as part of our fund-raising efforts, we put up our terrapin nests for adoption. Each nest adoption costs RM50, and each nest contains approximately 10 – 25 eggs. You will be furnished with a personalized Certificate of Adoption*. You will also receive information about your adopted nest at the end of the hatching season (by June/July), i.e. number of eggs incubated, number of hatchlings emerged, hatching success, etc. All funds raised through the Terrapin Adoption Programme will be used to carry out river terrapin conservation projects in the future.

*After your order is confirmed, we will contact you via email for details of the certificate.
