I read that the tumors are present on turtles all around the world, and one person involved speculated that the reduction in incidence in Hawaii was of unknown cause, but possibly due to removing the infected turtles from circulation.
I am a big fan of look but don't touch. One of the instructors I used to work with always chased the turtles (and everything else) around and get waaaay to close and basically scare them off. It was frustrating to watch and would ruin it for the other divers who entered the water after us as the turtles would take off and not return for several hours...
