Resumen
Descripción
The following report is based upon interviews with government and fishery officials and visits to sites of turtle activity such as nesting grounds, feeding areas, market places, turtle fisherman camps, etc. In 1969, the South Pacific Commission (SPC) and the South Pacific Islands Fisheries Development Agency (SPIFDA) sent the Marine Turtle Questionnaires to Fishery Departments in the South and Southwest Pacific and the few replies provided some background information on turtle resources. In most places the respondents to the Questionnaires were interviewed by the author and the information verified the pertinent data are included in this report.
