Abstract:
Our on-the-spot investigation has indicated that the tortoise population as natural resources has been on the decrease ever since the sixties. The reason for the decrease lies in some natural factors as well as the indiscriminate catching and killing by man. As a result, the female tortoises remarkably over whelm the male ones in number, which leads to a drop in the natural rate of breeding.
