A plea to stop slaughtering turtles

Dominica News Online "The Forestry, Wildlife and Parks Division is appealing to Dominicans particularly to residents of the southeast, northeast, and west coast areas of Dominica to stop the “wanton slaughter of sea turtles engaged in nesting activities on the beaches of Dominica”.

Based on reports from the field staff and interactions with the said communities, the Forestry and Wildlife says a total of 11 leatherback sea turtles have been slaughtered on the beaches in La Plaine in particular, and another 10 leatherback turtles were killed on the north east coast in the area of Woodford Hill."
