🌎 Panama: Critically endangered leatherback sea turtles have returned to nest on the Pacific coast here for the first time since 2017, a conservation milestone.

📰 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.

“KEY POINTS:
• CSIRO has completed initial testing of a ‘weather service’ for water quality in the Spencer Gulf in South Australia
• The industry’s production in the Spencer Gulf region is worth over $238 million a year
• The data could warn seafood industry of harmful marine events like algal blooms, which can kill fish..."
