It’s hard to tell from the sheer number of turtles awaiting in the Mexican Beach.But these Olive Ridley turtles meet a bumper crop of babies.
“We classify them as a recovering species.By nesting in mass, the turtles fled their predators and since their predators can’t cope with attacking a nest.We’re talking about animals like dogs, gulls, foxes and since birds that end up in the attacking of nests.”
Peralta is in charge of 15 kilometers of protected sand on the Pacific Ocean that welcomes these turtles. And this is only one of an estimated seven or eight groups of Olive Ridleys that will lay their eggs here, this nesting season.
“We believe between some 150,000 could come to deposit their eggs in August.It could probably reach 200,000 and that would be pretty good.”
Each wave of turtles will lay about 15 million eggs total.That’s an necessity because natural and man-made threats mean only about 1 in 1000 turtles will survive to adulthood.
