PaginePaginepagineapp.comOn summer nights, mother sea turtles crawl onto sandy beaches to lay their eggs.
She digs a nest, lays about one hundred eggs, covers them with sand, and returns to the ocean.
About two months later, the baby turtles hatch. They use the light of the moon on the water to find their way to the sea.
That is why some beach towns turn off bright lights at night during nesting season.
