I of Sabah Wildlife Conservation Enactment 1997. Therefore, the law protection of
Hawksbill Turtle in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah was studied. In order to determine the way
and the knowledge of the Sabah Wildlife Department's staffs towards implementation
of Sabah Wildlife Conservation Enactment 1997, a survey through questionnaire was
carried out. Data grouping and analysis using the Statistical Package for the Social

is concluded that the law protection of Hawksbill Turtle in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah by
Sabah Wildlife Department (SWD) seems to be effective when the populations of the
