Our usual roller-blading session in ECP was unusual on Tuesday night....there were baby turtles everywhere along the stretch of cycling track near Tanah Merah SAF Resort
Jason had no idea who to call so he dialled 999.....ehhh!Really loh!! The police even gave him the number to AVA (1800-476-1600),and we tried to call in,but no one picked up the phone.
Jason then called back 999..and spoke to one of the police and told them to inform any regarding Authority of ECP.
While waiting for calls, we continued our search for baby turtles.
Jason then transferred his belongings to my pouch and kept the baby turtles in his as there were too many to hold with hands.
When we saw no more turtles crawling out , we skate to the nearest shore with the intention to let it go..however,the National Park Rangers called and told us not to do so.
We waited for them at the nearest public toilet (near Pit 72) for them to come collect the turtles.
Some Photos and videos taken before the Rangers came to take the turtles away from us.....
Photo taken while I busy calling the AVA.

According to the National Park Board whom called just a minute ago, the turtle were "Hawksbill Turtle". They took from us to check what species they were and why they were here. Looks like this is the 2nd or 3rd time they came to our shores to lay their eggs..... Lucky Sighting for us....
