Ages 6 to 12 years. To lay eggs, a sea turtle swims thousands of miles to the beach where she was born. This long journey is fraught with danger. In many cases, the beaches are now full of hotels, people, and lights, which fool sea turtles into going the wrong way after they have laid their eggs. The journey of the hatchlings is even more harrowing, and very few make it to the ocean.

WTO Supports American Measures to Protect Sea Turtles

  At the request of Malaysia, World Trade Organization (WTO) set up an expert panel to discuss an America’s measure to protect sea turtle.

  The expert panel of WTO has made a decision that allow America implement its law to prevent sea turtle from being killed by shrimp net. According to this rule, if a shrimp boat can harm the existence of those endangered sea turtles, America can refuse to import shrimp product captured by these boats.

  All of the sea turtles living in American water area are regarded as endangered species. When shrimp nets are dragged underwater to capture shrimps, they can also catch sea turtles and tons of other fishes. If a sea turtle can’t get out of the shrimp nets, it will die. To effectively prevent the death of sea turtle, a metal mesh will be stitched on the shrimp net. The metal mesh is called turtle-driven device, it can induce sea turtle to pass through a mesh while other shrimps will go to the rear end of shrimp net through this metal mesh.

  In 1987, America issued Endangered Species Protection Law, requesting those shrimpers in the areas with high mortality rate of sea turtle to use turtle-driven device or to set time limit on their fishing operation. There are more than ten countries that request their shrimp boat to install this turtle-driven device.

  In 1996, Thailand, Malaysia, India and Pakistan lodged a complaint to WTO. They assumed that the limits which America imposed on shrimp’s import have constituted an unfair trade barrier. WTO agreed with the view of these countries, and it requested America to change its implementing method for the act of sea turtle. To comply with WTO requirement, America agreed to import shrimp product from the countries that didn’t request to install this turtle-driven device, but the only condition is that exporting party must testify that those shrimps were caught by the fishing boats equipped with turtle-driven device.

  Sea turtle is a kind of lovely marine creature. If you want to learn more about sea turtle, you can visit http://www.seaturtles911.org On this website, you can learn what measures we can take to save sea turtles.
