Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the #ocean are detrimental to the health & reproduction of marine turtles. In a study published in CCB, researchers study the blood and eggs of carnivorous #FlatbackTurtle in Queensland, Australia for POPs #seaturtleweek #seaturtle

Some things are an exquisite privilege. Seeing a baby flatback emerge from the ground where it is completely dry, and travel to its home for the next stage of life in the big blue sea is one of those. #Yunbenun #natatordepressus #flatbackturtle #turtlehatchling #turtlenesting

A female fallback turtle hauls herself ashore on a remote beach, Northern Australia. She will lay her eggs high on the shore, above the high tide mark. She will not return to shore to breed for another 18 months to 4 years. Image available to license. #flatbackturtle #turtlebeach

It was quite a privilege to find and help rescue these #flatbackturtle #natatordepressus #turtlehatchlings with Magnetic Island Turtle Hospital!

A local photographer has captured the moment more than 40 turtle hatchlings flip-flopped into the ocean for the first time. But it hasn't been a happy ending for all. We warn some viewers may find this story distressing. 7NEWS.com.au @paige_vl7 #7NEWS

Almost half a century after she was first encountered on a nesting beach, this #FlatbackTurtle is still reproducing. Scientists estimate that she has produced ~ 1,000 hatchlings over the past 47 years!! #SeaTurtles

The longest-studied #FlatbackTurtle 🐢has returned to one of Australia's 🇦🇺key nesting beaches! She was first flipper-tagged at a nesting beach in 1974 and has been providing important data since then. ➡️cms.int/iosea-turtles/… Photo © Colin Limpus

The first species to be featured for #SeaTurtleWeek is the #FlatbackTurtle, which are specifically threatened by coastal development. Lights can deter nesting turtles and attract hatchlings, beach armoring and construction prevents nesting, and with development comes pollution.
