KOTA KINABALU: What started out as an internship for Eva Vivian Justine as part of her bachelor’s degree programme has now turned into a full-time job looking after turtles.

She joined the Kudat Turtle Conservation Society six years ago during her last semester in 2017, thinking only of completing her marine science course.
