Welcome back. Today we are heading down to a Sea Turtle hatchery in Mexico. At this hatchery they collect the Sea Turtle eggs after they have been laid by the turtles and then they are re buried in a secure area. Once the little hatching's emerge from the sand they are collected and released in the sand along the waters edge. You might be asking yourself why even collect them. Sea Turtle eggs are still being illegally collected for human consumption in some parts of Mexico and this is one way to help the survival of the hatching's.
Today's picture is of a head started Green Turtle.This picture was taken with a Nikon D-100 camera with a 60 mm lens
See you tomorrow.
