Marine conservation is close to my heart, but I am particularly passionate about turtles. All species of sea turtles are now threatened with extinction, but in some countries, they are already well protected through various agreements. This was also the case in Malaysia, which I dealt with more intensively during the first Corona Lockdown in 2020. I was on my yacht between the islands of Kapas and Redang to take these pictures. Some beaches are closed to tourism because turtles visit them all year round to lay eggs. There I was able to see what the work of the animal conservationists looks like. But I also observed that turtle eggs are still stolen from the nests and sold on the market, as they are considered a delicacy in parts of Asia. Luckily, predation is now only tolerated on a few beaches in Malaysia. Nevertheless, I tried to make life miserable for the nest robbers. 00:00 Intro 00:48 Review to my last video 01:18 Arrived at a lonely turtle beach 04:19 My daily struggle for the shadow 06:17 Rangers searching for turtle clutches 10:11 What happens with the collected eggs 13:56 Sailing to the beautiful northern bay of Redang Island 17:03 Snorkeling with turtles 18:56 I excavate the eggs by myself 23:01 Locals plunder the turtle clutches 26:48 Releasing the turtle babies In the video, I drew attention to the SEATRU VOLUNTEER PROGRAM as a turtle conservationist on Redang Island. The programme was initiated by Universiti Malaysia Terengganu.

It is not a documentary or an explanatory film, it shows how I live. I am mostly funny and sometimes angry, like most people. Occasionally exaggerated presentations and statements are in no way personal. SUBSCRIBE to my channel and follow me on social media, so that you can support me. FACEBOOK:   / gangerl   INSTAGRAM:   / gangerlclemens   WEBSITE: http://www.gangerl.net Hey you, look at that! I am Gangerl! Everybody calls me this, but originally, my name is Wolfgang Clemens. I was born in 1941, I’m a certified arts blacksmith and adrenaline junky. In 1975, I started to build my own 15m long and 18t heavy steel sailing yacht in my backyard and since 1988, I am out and about on the world’s oceans. Since 1993, I am a one-man sailor. On water and on land, I have been around the world 9 times kilometre-wise – without counting air miles! In the jungle, with indigenous tribes, or on mountains all around the world, I enjoy it at least as much there as I enjoy being on my ship or underwater. Most importantly, is should be a place WITHOUT tourism. I never get tired, because who rests, rusts! For this reason, I am still planning on some adventures in the next years and hope that my bones will make it. But my general practitioner confirms I can be optimistic. I am especially interested in the jungle and the highlands of Papua and Papua-New Guinea with the last existing cannibals. I have already been there once, but I really want to go there once more. I live on my sailing yacht for the majority of the time. But when I am in Germany, I live in a re-constructed and adjusted wooden shed in the Bavarian Forest. By now, I already have a whole series of presentations of my travels. These are enjoyable film presentations, which I show and comment on live in ASSOCIATIONS, SAILING and YACHT CLUBS, or BUSINESSES. Send me a message on Facebook or on my website if you would like to invite me or propose me for a PRESENTATION.
