Turtle Research

Swim in the slow lane if you love turtles! Carlos and Akeem work with researchers from the Marine Life Center. They study the habits of three endangered turtles - the leatherback, green sea, and loggerhead turtle. All of these turtles lay their eggs on their beach, so they wanted to know how many loggerhead babies make it from their nest to the water?
