How Sea Turtles Return to Their Exact Birthplace I Wild to Know

The waters off the coast of Sri Lanka are home to a vast variety of marine life. One resident is the green turtle, an endangered species of sea turtle. Born on these shores, it migrates vast distances – but it always returns to the same beach. Green turtles begin their often long lives with a risky journey from beach to ocean. But just how do they manage to find their way home again, even from thousands of kilometers away? The answer might surprise you…

For some reason, this was the most peaceful 6 minutes I've ever experienced, especially the sea turtle's grazing part.

I love sea turtles. One of my best memory's is seeing the big mother turtle come on the beach in Florida and lay her eggs, also watching the baby's head for the water. Thanks for bringing back the good memories.

I am watching this channel now for months. Finally happy to see a footage from my motherland💓. And very informative as has always been.

That footage of the seaweed grazing was so simple and yet strangely so evocative.

I like how they are so innocent and cute 😊

Watching these baby turtles, I realised that we humans have been gifted way more than them, yet we are directly or indirectly are responsible for their lose.
Thank you for another hardworking day, Terra Mater.❤️

As a child I traveled to India with my parents. We visited beaches in Orissa where I saw Olive Ridley turtles pulling themselves out of the sea to lay eggs. That's the only time I saw sea turtles. Thank you so much for bringing back those sweet memories.

This reminds me of the turtle in ‘Finding Nemo’ so calm and kind~

Elite channel. Never disappoints. I just watched the deep-sea bioluminescent video and that was amazing too. I can't believe that this is a free channel.
