Free-ranging individuals were mainly late juveniles with a small
proportion of male and female adults photographed while foraging,
resting, swimming, or breeding along Reunion Island's coastal waters.
Profile photographs of captive green turtles came from two age groups.
The first group consisted of adult turtles that had been reared since their
emergence at the center when it was still a sea turtle farm (known as
the Coral Farm, in existence from 1977 to 1994, then converted into a
conservation and awareness center).
