AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Aldabra Recovery: A new survey estimates about 180,000 giant tortoises live on Aldabra Atoll—more than Seychelles’ human population. Monitoring from 2018 to 2022 found the population stable; researchers caution the higher estimate reflects improved counting, not necessarily a near-doubling. Once reduced to fewer than 1,000 by hunting, the tortoises rebounded under long-term protection. Seabird Comeback: On rat-free D’Arros Island, wedge-tailed shearwater numbers rose from about 254 breeding pairs in 2009 to 2,768 in 2016, showing how removing invasive species can help wildlife recover. Ocean Protection: Seychelles’ debt-for-conservation deal helped fund marine protection covering 30% of its waters by 2020, balancing biodiversity safeguards with the island nation’s reliance on the sea.
