    Excerpt
    Turtles are important reptiles in the marine ecosystem. They help maintain healthy sea grass beds and coral reefs that benefit commercial species such as shrimps, lobsters and tunas. Rescuing marine turtles is conserving biodiversity. The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) deems t important for people to report rescued marine turtles and other animals to the authorities. A female Green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) was rescued in Sito Lacaran, Barangay Ermita, Dumangas, Iloilo around 9 p.m. of Aug. 12.
