Leatherback turtle nesting in Grand Riviere has seen a significant increase, with 228 nests being recorded between March 1st and 17th. As the largest of all living turtles, the leatherback’s nesting season typically runs from March to August, making this spike an early and positive sign for the species. Grand Riviere is a well-known nesting site for these majestic creatures, making it a crucial area for their survival. Nesting sites are vital for the continuation of the species, as they provide a safe space for the turtles to lay and incubate their eggs. The increase in nesting could be attributed to various environmental factors, but regardless of the reason, it’s a promising start to the season and a hopeful sign for the future of the leatherback turtle.
