Rescue of a sea turtle that weights 200kg on the Juan de Nova island (Eparses Islands, France) by soldiers from the 2nd Regiment of the Gunner Paratrooper of Tarbes while in a sovereignty mission on the island. They have been helped by the only policeman on the island and were asked by Kelonia to follow the egg-laying of the turtle on the island. A group of soldiers are carrying a green turtle to the sea as it has been caught in the rocks while coming back from egg-laying on the beach. Soldiers are taking over from each other every 45 minutes so the french sovereignty of the island can be guaranteed as it is lusted after by Madagascar. The Eparses Islands give France a 640 000 km2 (whereas it's only 44km2 wide) and an amazing natural and conserving patrimony.Since sea turtles have become a protected species and the trade of their meat and shell has been banned, the “Ferme Corail” in the Reunion Island, specialized in sea turtle farming for human consumption, reinvented itself in 1997 into turtle’s conservation activities. The structure named “KELONIA” grew and is now dedicated to their protection via a health care center that takes in a large number of injured turtles every week in order to heal them and release them in the ocean – after several weeks of treatment in some cases. Kelonia is also trying to put emphasis on the general public’s awareness. That’s why a museum and aquariums with turtles from all around the Reunion seas were created. And, the turtles, which are living within the aquarium, enable the biologists to go further in their studies of those rare species that are difficult to observe in nature. When released, some turtles are thus equipped with Argos beacons thanks to which we can know their movement in the ocean better and so, refine the protection of their natural environment.

The rescue of a 22-kg sea turtke on Juan da Nova Island (Scattered Islands, France), by soldiers of the 2nd parachute artillery regiment of Tarbes, during a sovereignty mission on the island. Helped by the only policemen in charge of the island and appointed by KELONIA to monitor the turtles' egg-laying on Juan da Nova. The group is carrying a green sea turtle with difficulty, as it was stuck in rocks after having layed her eggs on the beach. Military detachments take shifts every 45 days on San Juan da Nova to assert French sovereignty on this small coral island ( five km by one km), coveted by Madagascar. For France, the Scattered Islands insure both a huge EEZ of 640 000 Km2 (with only 44 Km2 of dry land), and an exceptionnal natural heritage.
