Faraj’s statement came upon returning two turtles to their marine environment by the BSPCA Animal Welfare Center in cooperation with the Supreme Council for Environment (SCE).

Chairman of the BSPCA Animal Welfare Center pointed out that the association received these two injured green turtles in January and February before rehabilitating them and making sure they were ready to practice their lives in their natural environment.

He noted that over the past four years, the association received about 32 turtles by seafarers and Bahraini coastguards, but this year the numbers declined significantly, as the association received only the two turtles that are returned today to their marine environment.
