Показать описание
As the last of the sun's rays dip below the horizon, men and women in uniform begin their nightly patrols, armed with flashlights.
They are on the lookout for slow-moving targets.
It is close to 8pm when the first scratchy message buzzes over the two-way radio: They've caught one in the act.
A giant female loggerhead turtle is digging a nest in the damp grainy sand at Mon Repos Beach, close to the regional Queensland city of Bundaberg.
Once she has settled, the bright spotlight highlights her mission.
