Turtle hatching season guide

A loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) laying eggs. Loggerhead females take 17 years to reach sexual maturity. Studies suggest that during the mating season, sexually mature females will produce pheromones to alert potential suiters. Once the female has mated, she will lay 3-6 clutches of eggs over a period of 12-14 days, with each clutch containing an average of 100 eggs. She will then not produce any more eggs for the following 2-4 years. Nesting areas are carefully chosen by the females as the

Mama Loggerhead Sea Turtle Laying Eggs. For the past week, I have begun my morning walk extra early around 5am in hopes of witnessing one of these amazing creatures in her natural habitat. With me, I carried my night vision goggles, because I hoped to be able to capture the beauty of the event while keeping a safe distance away. As I headed South from my condo in Cocoa Beach, I only made a few dozen steps before I encountered the first set of turtle tracks leading deep into the dunes. A few feet

#TurtleTuesday - We recorded our first green sea turtle nest hatch-out of the season this morning! We now have all three species; leatherbacks, loggerheads and greens currently hatching on our 9.5 mile stretch of beach! Our stretch of beach is one of the most densely sea turtle nesting beaches in the world, we currently have 10,266 nests! Nesting season here in Palm Beach County runs from March 1 to October 31 and we can't wait to see what our final nest count is! | Loggerhead Marinelife Center

Some live photos of the Loggerhead hatchlings that have been coming in over the past week! 🐢🐢 Most of them came in from nest evaluations in the Middle Keys and the one was found in an Upper Keys swimming pool. 🌴 72 hours after a nest hatches, Save a Turtle does a nest evaluation to determine how many eggs hatched. Sometimes there are still live hatchlings in the nest that were root-bound and didn’t make it out. The live hatchlings are then admitted to The Turtle Hospital for rehabilitation, w

It’s turtle hatching season on the Great Barrier Reef! Thousands of green, hawksbill, loggerhead, and flatback turtle hatchlings are making their way from nest to ocean in the ultimate race for survival 🌊 But their journey isn’t easy – artificial lights, beach obstacles, predators, and human activity can put these little ones at risk. You can help protect them! Here’s how: 🌙 Turn off or shield lights near beaches at night 📸 Avoid flash photography and torches near turtles (including those mob

Finding a safer home for rare loggerhead eggs 🐢🏠 Earlier this year, our team helped relocate an endangered Loggerhead turtle nest on the mid-north coast 🥚 Relocating eggs is only done when the original site is unsafe or under threat. In this case, the nest was positioned too low in the dunes and too close to a nearby creek. A minor flood event or even a large swell would risk this nest being inundated or washed out. This location could also have caused the hatchlings to become disoriented aft

Rise and shine sleepyheads!💤 We recently had our first leatherback nest excavation of the season and met some leatherback hatchlings. This nest hatched three days prior to excavation. Sea turtle hatchlings are going to start popping up on our beaches, and thanks to special permits, we can collect data from hatched and unhatched eggs in sea turtle nests. This data will help us understand sea turtle reproduction on our local beaches and provide valuable insight on sea turtle conservation. Nest ex

If the weekend wasn't enough to get excited about, check this out! A very rare occurrence was captured on film this Wednesday as an IRG biologist stumbled upon a loggerhead nest that was hatching on our very own survey site. Watch as these little loggerheads persevere and make their way out of their nest, essentially using falling sand and their brothers and sisters as a ladder out. In this nest, you'll find roughly 100 eggs, most of which have been "pipped" open by the tiny caruncle (or egg too

🐢 😍 Paddleboarders were delighted to spot a tiny sea turtle swimming off the coast of Naples, Florida, this week. Video shows the loggerhead hatchling swimming as paddleboarders cheer it on. According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), Florida’s Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico beaches host one of the “largest loggerhead nesting aggregations in the world.” On their website, the FWC says that loggerhead turtle eggs incubate for about 60 days. Once hatched, the young turt
