Abstract | The Ningaloo Turtle Program (NTP) was established in 2002 as a collaborative project between Cape
Conservation Group Inc (CCG), World Wildlife Fund (WWF)-Australia and the Department of
Environment and Conservation (DEC)-Exmouth District. The primary aim of the program is to
promote the long-term survival of turtle populations within the Ningaloo region by collecting longterm
trend data on marine turtle population size.
For the purpose of the program, the Ningaloo region is divided spatially into a hierarchical
classification. There are four divisions within Ningaloo: North West (NW) Cape division, Cape Range
division, Bundera/Ningaloo division, and Coral Bay division. Each division is then further divided
into sections and sub-sections. |
