If you get up early in the morning and make it to the beach around
4:00 or 5:00 AM you may find a special treat.
Large 300 pound sea turtles are laying their eggs.
The big mama came in just before daybreak and spent about 30 minute
digging a hole, laying her eggs, covering them up and going back
into the sea.
The magnificent sea Turtles migrate thousands of miles,
but usually return to lay their eggs on the same beach where
they hatched.
Sea turtles have existed for over one hundred million years
It can take 15 – 50 years before a sea turtle is capable of reproducing
Scientists estimate that only 1 in 1000 to 10,000 babies will survive
to adulthood
Sea turtles live their entire life in the ocean. The only time they come
ashore is when the female lays her eggs.
Sea turtles are reptiles. They breathe air and can hold their breath for long
periods of time.
When its time to sleep, a loggerhead will wedge under a rock close to the
shore, or take a snooze while floating on the surface of deep water
Hatchlings weigh less than one ounce and are only two inches long.
Adults can grow over 3 feet long and weigh 200 to 300 pounds!
The nest temperature during incubation determines a sea turtle’s sex.
Boys like it cool – Girls like it hot.
Sea turtles have great underwater vision, but are nearsighted out of the water.
Although sea turtles do not have external ears, they are capable of hearing
low frequency sounds and vibrations
Sea turtles use their strong jaws to crush a diet of crabs, shrimp, mussels,
and jelly fish.
This is to sad
I was talking to the park service lady who I call the “Turtle Lady.”
She said they lost over 200 turtles this year in shrimp nets on the
Gulf as the Shrimp boats crews were in a rush to get the shrimp in before the
oil spill destroys them and the turtles drowned in the nets they are air breathers.
“This oil spill is really a mess.”
The eggs will take about 3 months to mature and the little ones will scurry
back to the sea.
One of the advantages of doing my training before the sun rises is that everything is
Really Still
and you get to see wonderful things in nature that most of us miss as we get
those last minute Zzzzzzzz’s.
