SOP released to conserve sea turtles across 36 islands of Lakshadweep

by | Jun 20, 2026 | Asia

A new Standard Operating Procedure has been launched for sea turtle conservation in Lakshadweep, offering a unified framework for management and monitoring. This initiative aims to protect all four major sea turtle species, which are legally protected. The SOP addresses nesting site security, migration tracking, and rescue protocols, building on the success of a decade-long ban on poaching that has boosted green turtle populations in the region.
