Meanwhile, the level of awareness on conservation of marine mammals, turtles and whale shark in Kuala Terengganu was considered as high. However, the education level in Kuala Terengganu did not differentiate the level of public awareness of the respondents regarding the conservation of marine mammals, turtles and whale shark. Nevertheless, the suggestion, opinion and improvement of conservation strategies are eventually going to play a significant role in monitoring and maintaining the marine mammals, turtles and whale sharks population in Kuala Terengganu.
