shiva_charles1 0 Posted June 23, 2009 The camera flash accidentally went off and disturbs the turtles from following their instincts to go to the sea after hatching. The camera flash probably either confuses the turtle or scares it. Amanda points them in the right direction a couple of times to put them back on track. Link to comment
shiva_charles1 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Amanda loves the beach more than I do so she goes there a lot more than I. She likes to find remote areas to bathe/lime (leisure) so that she can avoid the cluster of people + tourist that other usual beaches get these days. Turns out that one of her secret liming spots was being shared with a turtle that came out the water, dug a hole, and started laying its eggs. Most likely this turtle is avoiding its usual egg laying beaches of Trinidad because of people invading those beaches. Amanda now visits that spot frequently and is currently ensuring that any turtles who come there would not be invaded by people. She wants to make people aware of this problem but fears that no one will listen and instead expose the turtles to the same lifestyle that its trying to avoid. Amanda rocks!!!! Link to comment
