Hi there,
just searching for a little more information about the project. Where are the turtles, fish and coral being transported from and too? What’s the terrain of the area (wondering about potential vehicle needed)? What resources a required, including water type for travelling?

Hi Will,

Thanks for your questions!

The turtles, fish and coral will be transported from a variety of locations – typically it will be from the reef to another facility, eg somewhere like Cairns aquarium. You can assume that it might need to be transported on the back of a trailer or similar vehicle. This post also has some more information which you might find helpful.

For the terrain, I recommend taking a look at our interactives series – these photos and videos will enable you to explore Yirrganydji Country more closely. 

In terms of what resources are required – that is something you will need to find out! What kinds of resources are needed to safely transport turtles, fish and coral, and how can you design a tank that incorporates all these?

Hope this helps, please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Rachel
