Tracking the Missing Years: New Discoveries About Young Sea Turtles' Travels.
Reading
Scientists have found out where young sea turtles go during a mysterious part of their lives. They used satellite trackers to follow the turtles.
For a long time, scientists didn't know where young turtles went after they left the beach. This time is called the 'lost years' because the turtles were hard to find.
The scientists put special tags on over 100 young turtles in the Gulf of Mexico. These tags sent back information about the turtles' location.
The scientists learned that the turtles don't just drift in the ocean currents. Instead, the turtles swim and make decisions about where they want to go.
This new information helps scientists understand how to protect these endangered animals. Now that we know where the turtles go, we can try to keep those areas safe.
