More Info⸻🐣 Nesting Season: A Turtle’s Summer RetreatFrom May to August,
female turtles return to the beaches where they were born to lay eggs.
Each nest can contain up to 100 eggs, which incubate for about 50-60 days. Interestingly, the temperature of the sand determines the sex of the hatchlings: warmer sands produce females, cooler sands produce males. NOAA Fisheries⸻🌿 Conservation Efforts: Protecting Our Flippered FriendsCyprus has made significant strides in turtle conservation:• Marine Turtle Conservation Project (MTCP): Established in 1992, MTCP monitors and protects nesting sites, particularly in Northern Cyprus.
