(220616) -- REDANG ISLAND, June 16, 2022 (Xinhua) -- A newly hatched baby green turtle scurries towards the sea after it came out of the nest at the Chagar Hutang Turtle Sanctuary, at the northern part of Redang Island, Terengganu, Malaysia, on June 14, 2022. The Chagar Hutang Turtle Sanctuary is one of the main nesting sites for green and hawksbill turtles. The annual nesting period for green sea turtles usually falls around March to October, with a peak in May to July. In 2005, the Terengganu State government declared Chagar Hutang beach as a sea turtle sanctuary. Since then, Chagar Hutang has been restricted to the public, allowing only researchers, volunteers and eligible visitors to enter the beach. (Xinhua/Zhu Wei)
