Hatcheries have several<br />
advantages and these<br />
include:<br />
Certain proportion of<br />
eggs is guaranteed to be<br />
protected from risk on<br />
nesting beach, such as<br />
predation by animals,crabs,<br />
people, beach erosion,<br />
flooding by high tide, etc.<br />
Number of eggs<br />
protected and<br />
hatchlings released<br />
is documented; hence<br />
there is some known<br />
measure of success.<br />
Involvement of<br />
volunteers and<br />
other personnel in<br />
conservation related<br />
action has a positive<br />
effect on spreading<br />
awareness.<br />
Hatchlings are<br />
available at a known<br />
time and place for<br />
use in education and<br />
awareness programs.<br />
The hatchery provides physical focus<br />
for conservation activity related to the<br />
coast, and can be used for public<br />
