Who is that digging in sea turtle nests!? Sea turtle eggs and hatchlings have many natural predators on the beach including foxes, raccoons, skunks, birds, and crabs! Don't worry though, no sea turtle eggs were harmed in this video! Each morning during nesting survey, our sea turtle conservation team is on the lookout for any predation activity from the night before. If signs of predation are observed, the team will sprinkle pepper powder on the nest or cover the nest with a mesh wire screen. Th

Sea turtle hatchlings face incredibly challenging odds in the wild, with only about 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 10,000 surviving to adulthood. After hatching, they must quickly make their way to the ocean, a journey fraught with dangers from predators like birds, crabs, and fish. Even after reaching the water, they are vulnerable to larger marine predators and environmental threats. This low success rate is why sea turtles lay so many eggs—ensuring that at least a few hatchlings survive to adulthood to c

These beautiful long necked turtle hatchlings were born today when I checked the incubator. 180-210 days after they were collected from nests that were predated by foxes and crows in the turtle breeding season last year. Kind caring residents and turtle watchers would call me when they found dead turtles or disturbed nests predated by foxes and crows and these guys were collected from those predated nests and dead mother turtles . It’s incredibly heart warming to see these guys hatch as they did

🐢 57 critically endangered Hawksbill sea turtle hatchlings were rescued from disorientation and given a second chance at life. 🚨 Disoriented hatchlings are primarily caused by light pollution from coastal development. Baby sea turtles have been designed by evolution to be sensitive to light as one of their cues to find the sea. An instinct that has kept them alive for millions of years is now backfiring due to artificial lights. However, we can do something about it. Disclaimer: Hatchlings wer

Tiny steps, big challenges 💙 These little hatchlings have one goal—reach the ocean. 🌊 But with natural odds stacked against them and human impacts adding more threats, only about 1 in 1000 will survive to adulthood. Shoutout to the key conservation efforts we’ve supported that mitigate these threats across the Great Barrier Reef: 🌱 restoring seagrass habitat 🏝 protecting coastal and island hatcheries 🥚 relocating turtle nests to higher and shady ground 🗑 Reducing beach debris and rubbish f

This is egg-citing 🥚 These turtle eggs will hatch in just a few months. Once they do, the hatchlings are on their own—turtle parents don’t stick around. Mom will cover the nest to hide it from predators, picking a spot to give her babies the best shot at survival. | Texas Parks and Wildlife

Sea turtle hatchling PSA! 🐢 Every summer, our local beaches become nesting grounds for thousands of sea turtles. Sometimes, these hatchlings face challenges reaching the sea. If you encounter a distressed sea turtle, reach out to FWC (@MyFWC) at 1-888-404-3922. In case of emergency, you can bring the hatchling directly to the Coastal Center. ❌ Avoid bringing the hatchling indoors. Sea turtles should never be submerged in water or exposed to direct air conditioning. Instead, place the hatchling
