   A Universiti Malaysia Terengganu study found the average size of green turtles nesting at Pulau Redang fell from 100.8cm in 2005 to 96.8cm in 2022, with estimated weight dropping from 120kg to 105kg. Although nest numbers rose from 300 to 2,000 a year, researchers raised questions about habitat carrying capacity and changes in turtle population structure.
