Due to prevailing the excellent environment for COVID 19 lockdown, a record amount of tortoise eggs has collected by the 5 ex-situ Turtles Conservation Center of Mather Bunia, Patuakhali, Bangladesh this year under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
And from that eggs, the baby tortoises have been reproduced and released into the sea. In comparison to the last year, a record number of eggs have collected in 5 turtle conservation centers under Patuakhali, Bangladesh this year.
