When I was a kid , I worked as volunteer at a turtle sanctuary. It was so cool watching the whole process of nature taking course. Selingan Island is bucket list for us. Great work and thank you for sharing this wonderful video. Truly appreciated. Sending you much love from Richmond, Va. ❤❤ Jim, Harriet and Yuki
That's so interesting that they can choose the sex of the turtle by the temperature of the soil that the eggs are in. The sound of the waves soothes my soul as well 😇 It's very impressive just how much they're doing to help turtles. What a torrential downpour! Really loved this video. I love how soothing your voiceovers are!
Yeah especially because now more females are being hatched due to increasing temperatures! But yeah visiting this island was fascinating to see just how and what they are doing, such extensive research!
Turtle Islands is actually comprised of 9 islands..3 belonging to Malaysia and 6 belonging to the Philippines...all of these islands are nesting sites for sea turtles .. mostly Green Sea Turtles..
@@talesofodyssey the closest you can get is in Bacungan Kecil island ( little Bacungan) a stone's throw away from Great Bacungan island ( Philippines side)...The most populated is Taganak Island where most Philippine government installations are located.. there's also a Sanctuary in the Philippines' part of the islands...Baguan island... the only uninhabited island of the 6...

How much was this trip? What time of the year did you go? How far in advance did you book it? I'm trying to book it on their site but I'm unable to do so...thank you
Hey guys! I was able to book quite near before going on the trip! Do you have Instagram? If so can you send me a message then I can share the whatsapp number I booked through! The website is confusing but I got the Whatsapp of someone who works with crystal quest

I LOVE turtles. So happy you advocate for them! 🐢 🥹🥹
Ah thanks so much girl, it was so special to witness all of this! And so cool they have such extensive conservation going on here! 😊
There is also another turtle species, the Leatherback turtle, in Malay we call it "Penyu Belimbing", the biggest turtle between the 3 species
Very cool videos enjoyed it very much reminded me of my youth. My family raised California desert tortoises.
Only 3 countries in South east asia are considered mega diverse. Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines.
Thailand
@@matikatakchanel3262 nope. Only tourists thought so.
And Indonesia is carrying southeast Asia in that department 😂
I think due to security, some part of the island is protected by ESSCOM. As it is very close to the Philippines. Similar to sipadan island.
Thanks you for coming 😍😍😍 turtle time 😍

Due to transportation issues, many more islands in Sabah remain unexplored by travelers, particularly those that connect with sea and land.
Probably good to have some places where humans aren't located :)
