Turtles Mating And Giving Birth

Life In The Ocean Turtle Mating And Giving Birth


Published on Dec 23, 2014

Sea turtles are generally solitary creatures that remain submerged for much of the time they are at 

sea, which makes them extremely difficult to study. They rarely interact with one another outside 

of courtship and mating. Ridleys, however, do come together in massive groups during nesting. But 

even when large numbers of turtles gather on feeding grounds or during migration, there is little 

behavioral exchange among individuals. Because of the difficulty in studying marine turtles in the 

open ocean, there are a great many things still unknown about their behavior. Decades of research, 

however, including observations at sea, have produced useful insights into daily activities and 

behaviors such as courtship, mating and nesting.
