Hawksbill turtle, Fiji. Hawksbill turtles live on coral reefs where their favourite food, sponges, are most plentiful.
WWF South Pacific works with two flagship marine species – whales and turtles – both of which are prominent in Pacific culture.
Our objectives are to work with the communities of Fiji to ensure that traditional harvesting is done sustainably; and to reduce commercial harvesting and accidental fatalities.
WWF South Pacific also promotes the conservation of whales by helping to establish whale sanctuaries; and by researching the status of their populations in the Pacific and the processes that threaten them.
