Duffy et al.: marine turtle population status and conservation in Cambodia

Findings

• The synthesis describes continued turtle presence alongside threats from bycatch, historical harvesting and habitat loss.
• The 2016 nesting-beach assessment found no nests. Later surveyed beaches also had non-detections, while an opportunistic February 2022 visit documented a green-turtle nest on an unnamed offshore island. The atlas does not invent a location for that nest.

What the evidence can tell us

The research combines surveys, interviews and historical reports. Earlier nesting records do not confirm that beaches remain active today.
