@Kevin @Eggfreckles @tankgrrl weirdly, as someone who isnt herpetology-oriented, yesterday the algorithm served me up this video about snapping turtles, talking about how they get much more charming (less bitey) if you only pick them up nice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXWqsx8918Y #turtles

📰 Leatherbacks Return After Nearly a Decade
🌎 Panama: Critically endangered leatherback sea turtles have returned to nest on the Pacific coast here for the first time since 2017, a conservation milestone.
🐢 Community groups and the Environment Ministry relocated 178 eggs to a protected hatchery to boost survival. Hatchlings expected in September/October! 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢

📰 Record Turtle Nesting Boom in North Carolina
🌎 Northern Outer Banks, NC: Sea turtles are having a banner year with 56 nests, the most since counting began in 2009. Hatchlings are already making their tiny‑tire‑track dash to the ocean.
🐢 Volunteers from NEST patrol 60 miles of beach daily, protecting loggerheads, greens, Kemp’s ridleys, and even a rare leatherback visitor. 🐢🐢🐢

📰 Volunteers Help Track Sea Turtle Hatching Success
🌎 Outer Banks, NC: Protecting sea turtles continues after hatchlings reach the ocean. Trained volunteers with N.E.S.T. return to nests about 72 hours after the last hatchling emerges to carefully excavate and study the nest.
🐢🥚 During excavations, volunteers count eggs, eggshells, unhatched eggs, and any remaining hatchlings. This data helps conservationists measure hatching and emergence success and estimate how many hatchlings successfully left the nest.
🔍 The effort can also document rare genetic conditions and verify nest relocation outcomes. Any live hatchlings found are safely released to continue their journey to the sea.
🤝 The information collected helps scientists monitor nesting success and strengthen sea turtle conservation efforts along North Carolina’s coast.

📰 Loggerheads Are Surging Across U.S. Beaches
🐢 U.S. SE Coast: A record nesting season is unfolding from the Carolinas to Florida, with loggerhead sea turtles laying more nests than biologists have seen in decades. The sustained protection of beaches, reduced lighting, and long-term monitoring are paying off.
🌍 The boom isn’t universal. While U.S. numbers climb, other global rookeries are seeing declines. Scientists say this contrast underscores how local conservation choices can shape species futures even amid warming oceans and shifting coastlines.
🔬 Researchers and volunteers continue tracking nests, hatchling success, and coastal changes to understand why some regions thrive while others struggle.

📰 North Carolina’s Smallest Turtle, Saved by Dogs
🌎 NC: Conservation groups are using specially trained detection dogs to locate threatened bog turtles, North America’s smallest turtle, and even find their hard-to-spot nests. The dogs can uncover turtles far more efficiently than traditional survey methods.
🐢 Bog turtles face threats from habitat loss, illegal collection for the pet trade, and damage to mountain wetlands. The species relies on rare high-elevation bog habitats that also support many other plants and animals.
🐕 A three-year pilot program led by The Nature Conservancy, the Amphibian and Reptile Conservancy, and the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission is helping researchers track turtles, monitor nesting sites, and improve conservation efforts.
🤝 Innovative partnerships, conservation technology - and sometimes dogs - are giving threatened species a better chance for recovery.

📰 Leatherback Sea Turtle Nests in VA for the First Time in Recorded History
🐢 Naval Air Station Oceana’s Dam Neck Annex: On this protected beach, Virginia Aquarium staff and partners located the soft, leathery eggs, secured the nest with a predator‑exclusion cage, and will monitor it through the ~60‑day incubation.
🌊 Leatherbacks usually nest on tropical beaches, not temperate Mid‑Atlantic shores. Their appearance here hints at shifting ocean conditions and the importance of keeping coastal habitats healthy.

TURTLE TUESDAY
Wow. It has been so hot here that Eastern Box Turtles have been bathing in my shallow upper pond for hours. I have found two doing this.
This is normal behavior but not often seen. It's a reminder of the importance of making water available for wildlife.

🐢🐢 TURTLE TUESDAY 🐢🐢
🌏 Tiny Raine Island is the largest nesting site for 90% of endangered Green Sea Turtles. Unfortunately, rising sea levels are creating slopes that cause hatchlings to flip over and die. Climate change's heat is causing too many females to be born.
💪 But an intrepid group of egg relocation specialists, armed with high tech and knowledge from Indigenous groups nearby, is saving the day. They have relocated eggs at scale to a safer island.
🌊 This year, more than 9,100 northern Great Barrier Reef green sea turtle hatchlings have begun their journey to the sea. An amazing 82% of the relocated eggs hatched and made it to the water.
✅ This is another example of a conservation effort that is successful because it uses Indigenous knowledge to be ecological and sustainable.

TURTLE (OR TORTOISE) TUESDAY
☀️ In the southern Sahara, where degraded, baked, crusted soil prevented any seedlings to establish, ecological restorationists dispatched 500 "ecosystem engineers."
More commonly known as African spurred tortoises, the ecotechnicians went to work digging burrows to avoid the desert heat and cold.
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
🐢🐢🐢
🌧️ Water stayed in the soil. Plants grew. Insects and microorganisms moved in, followed by birds and small mammals.🛰️ From space the region even looks alive.
✅ This is another example of a successful low-tech nature-focused rewilding effort. (Recall my incessant beaver updates.)

World Turtle Day 🐢
Ogni anno, il 23 maggio, il mondo si ferma (idealmente…) per celebrare la Giornata Mondiale delle Tartarughe, un appuntamento che nel 2026 compie ben 26 anni di storia ufficiale. Un compleanno importante per una ricorrenza che non è solo “carina e social-friendly”, ma sempre più urgente e necessaria.
Se vuoi approfondire la storia della ricorrenza e le curiosità già raccontate, puoi leggere l’articolo precedente
Ma cosa sta succedendo nel 2026? Spoiler: tra buone notizie e campanelli d’allarme, le tartarughe stanno vivendo uno dei loro momenti più delicati di sempre.
🐢 2026: l’anno della “svolta fragile” per le tartarughe
Le tartarughe sono tra le creature più antiche del pianeta: esistono da oltre 200 milioni di anni, praticamente hanno visto passare dinosauri, ere glaciali e cambiamenti climatici estremi. Eppure oggi, nel 2026, si trovano davanti a sfide tutte “umane”:
- 🌊 cambiamento climatico
- 🧴 inquinamento da plastica
- 🎣 pesca accidentale
- 🐢 traffico illegale di specie
- 🏝️ perdita degli habitat costieri
Secondo le stime più recenti, circa il 60% delle specie di tartarughe è minacciato o già a rischio estinzione.
🌱 Buone notizie dal 2026 (sì, ce ne sono!)
Non tutto è negativo: il 2026 porta anche segnali di speranza.
✨ Alcune popolazioni di tartarughe marine, come la tartaruga verde, stanno mostrando segni di recupero grazie a decenni di protezione internazionale.
In alcuni programmi di conservazione globali, questa specie è stata addirittura rivalutata come meno a rischio rispetto al passato.In Italia e nel Mediterraneo, inoltre, progetti locali stanno diventando sempre più attivi, soprattutto in regioni come la Puglia, dove il monitoraggio delle nidificazioni è cresciuto negli ultimi anni.
Focus Italia 2026: la Puglia sempre più “turtle friendly”
Il 2026 conferma un trend interessante: il Mediterraneo è sempre più casa delle tartarughe Caretta caretta. Le spiagge italiane, e in particolare quelle pugliesi, stanno diventando punti cruciali per:
- 🥚 nidificazione
- 🛟 salvataggi di esemplari feriti
- 🌊 protezione dei nidi dai turisti inconsapevoli
In parallelo, cresce anche il turismo sostenibile, con iniziative che uniscono natura, educazione e rispetto dell’ambiente marino.
🧡 Il messaggio del 2026: “proteggere è un gesto quotidiano”
La Giornata Mondiale delle Tartarughe 2026 non è solo una celebrazione simbolica, ma un invito concreto:
👉 ridurre la plastica monouso
👉 rispettare le spiagge e i nidi
👉 sostenere le associazioni di recupero fauna marina
👉 sensibilizzare i più giovaniPerché le tartarughe non hanno bisogno solo di ammirazione… ma di azioni reali.
🌊 Una lezione lenta (ma di impatto!!)
Le tartarughe ci insegnano qualcosa che il mondo moderno tende a dimenticare: la lentezza non è debolezza, è resistenza. E forse è proprio questo il messaggio più attuale del 2026:💚 andare più piano per far durare di più il pianeta.
🐢 Perché ogni tartaruga salvata è un pezzo di futuro che resta in equilibrio tra terra e mare.
