TURTLES In the south of Sri Lanka sits the small coastal town of Kosgoda. Once a sleepy town of humble origins, Kosgoda has become something of a popular tourist destination, owing to an abundance of turtles which can be found on its shores – but while turtles are a significant draw for visitors to the region, their prevalence and survival has relied heavily on conservation efforts.
