📰 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.

🐢🌊 Victory for Lenny the Loggerhead! This 322-pound sea turtle was rescued off the Florida Keys after a shark attack left him with injuries. Thanks to dedicated care at The Turtle Hospital, Lenny swam back to the wild on March 25, 2025! A true marine miracle.

👏 Major win for marine conservation! The first Greek shipping company has pledged to reroute its vessels to protect endangered whales in the Hellenic Trench, a crucial habitat for these majestic creatures. This is a significant step towards safer seas and a brighter future for our marine wildlife. 🌊🐋
