After watching two mama turtles lay eggs, with one of them moving back to the ocean, Jesse James, our tour guide went off in search of hatchlings. He found this little fella and we all bid it farewell before guiding it back down to the water. They are born with a yolk in their belly which provides nourishment for about 2 weeks after they hatch. After that, if they survive (and that's a very big if), they eat mainly jellyfish. The females don't start breeding for 25 years, which Jesse says the males "respect". Most of the babies don't end up making it to that age, however. But what a delightful adventure. Next on my list, whales.
