Sea turtles in captivity in bad condition in Kedonganan

Writer's picture: Rodney WesterlakenRodney Westerlaken

Since January we are monitoring a case where sea turtles are being kept in 2 basins in Kedonganan. Today we ran another inspection and the results are not good. Two 5 month old baby Green Turtles are having severe infections likely caused by bad waterflow and cannibalistic Olive Ridley turtles in the same basin. We have sent out a report with an urgent appeal for help to BPSPL Denpasar. Hopefully we can find a solution soon!

The Stop Orphanages Campaign is an initiative spearheaded by Westerlaken Foundation and Yayasan Bali Bersih. Its primary objective is to combat the exploitation of children and the use of orphanages as a means of personal gain, and children as a marketing tool. While we acknowledge that there are Child Welfare Institutions (LKSA) in Indonesia that genuinely prioritize the well-being of children, extensive research reveals that a majority of orphanages in Bali, Indonesia operate in violation of the National Standard for Child Welfare Institutions (30/HUK/2011). This standard explicitly prohibits the institutionalization of children based on poverty or limited access to education, as well as emphasizes the importance of empowering families and preventing the recruitment of children into orphanages.
