Watch green sea turtles hatch from eggs and head to the ocean to avoid predators



Transcript

NARRATOR: During the breeding season the female sea turtle emerges onto land. After digging a nest in the sand, she lays her eggs and returns to the sea.

Warmed by the sun, the eggs hatch in a few weeks.

The newly born sea turtles must scramble immediately from the broken eggshells to safety of the sea before falling prey to larger animals.
