Endangered turtle’s tracks
endangered turtleA mother Olive Ridley turtle, known also as a Pacific Ridley turtle, leaves her tracks in the sand after laying a clutch of over 100 eggs (inset) within the compound of the 1,500- megawatt, natural gas-fired plant of First Gas in Sta. Rita, Batangas. This marked the second time that the First Gas compound served as a nesting place for this endangered turtle species. To ensure a high hatching rate for the eggs, First Gas coordinated with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to secure the nesting place. The Olive Ridley’s visits serve as additional proof of the healthy condition of the beach area of First Gas.
