Look at these turtles go! On July 29, Padre Island National Seashore in Texas had its last turtle release of the year, sending 184 baby Kemp's ridley sea turtles into the wild. In spring and summer, nesting turtles are protected, examined and tagged at Padre Island. Nests are moved to protected areas and monitored until they hatch. Then thousands of visitors come to see these hatchlings cruise into the ocean. They are popular events, and we can definitely see why! Video by National Park Service.

These three Kemp’s Ridley hatchlings have officially made their trip into the sea! We would like to thank some observant beach visitors who noted this emerging turtle nest. A huge shoutout to the visitor who called and alerted us so that we could respond and know where to search. This allowed us to further excavate the nest for documentation and to see if there was any hatchlings still present. Due to Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtles being the most endangered species, ensuring that as many hatchling ma
