We have being capturing Sea turtle data by submitting photos from multiple angles and noting other features to an organization called Tao Talay Aow Thai

Currently we have identified many new turtles and provided some really usual historical data that allowed the team to trace some Hawksbill Turtle Movements back over the past ten years from our older captures! This is fantastic as this data helps us to build data we can use IRL (In real life) to promote protecting areas and beaches for and during egg laying periods and raise awareness of threats to this endangered species.
We would love your help!
Each Turtle we identify we get to name.
We thought it would be nice to give people a chance to name a turtle in the Thai gulf
and if im honest, we might need a little help in inspiration too from time to time :)
So pop on over to Instagram, https://www.instagram.com/p/CdvMHYoJRq1/
and drop a name or two as suggestions. We will of course have future newer posts for the same means you can see if you follow us, but you can start here :)
We will of course tag back anyone whos name suggestion get used so they can know and who knows, maybe one day you can go scuba diving in Thailand and spot your turtle.
