ANDAMAN SEA
Dugong
The Dugong, often referred to as the "sea cow," is another endangered species in the Andaman Sea.
These gentle herbivores are known for their seagrass-dependent diet.
Tourists can help conserve Dugongs by not littering in the sea, as marine debris can harm them and their habitats.
Whale Shark
The Andaman Sea is occasionally visited by the world's largest fish, the whale shark, which is listed as vulnerable.
Tourists should practice responsible diving and snorkeling around these gentle giants, maintaining a safe distance and not attempting to touch them.
Napoleon Wrasse
The Napoleon Wrasse is a threatened fish species found in the Andaman Sea.
To protect their habitat, tourists should avoid stepping on or damaging coral reefs while snorkeling or diving.
