Rare Leatherback Turtle Spotted Nesting in Thailand
Officials at a national park in Thailand spotted a female leatherback turtle coming ashore to lay eggs, marking the fifth such nest of the breeding season. They named her Mae Lampi due to her visit being seen as a delightful new year’s gift. The officers found 120 eggs, with 78 fertilised and 42 hollow, and relocated them to a safer location.
