There is a lack of scientific evidence as to whether sea turtles go ashore to lay eggs on the beaches of Taiwan. Many people are suspicious of Ocean University's students 'and teachers' simple reliance on "rumors" to begin their research into the green turtle.
台灣沿岸是否有海龜上岸產卵，缺乏正式的科學文獻，很多人對海洋大學師生憑著一些「傳聞」就想研究綠蠵龜，不表樂觀。
