KOTA KINABALU: Carcasses of 19 endangered green turtles have been found in Sabah’s northern Pulau Tiga about a year after wildlife rangers made a similar recovery on the same island.

Sabah Wildlife Department in a statement on Monday said that it had found the rotting green turtles carcasses on island following a tip off on Mar 5.
