 | Scientists in Costa Rica are studying the death of at least 10 and 12 more ailing turtles in the southern zone. Universidad Nacional (UN) told the press that the environmental organization MarVia found the 22 turtles floating near Matapalo beach. Ten of the Kemp’s Ridley turtles died within days of bringing them to shore and biologists and veterinarians have no idea of what caused their deaths. According to Widecast Network, this occurs when creatures have been floating adrift in the water for a prolonged period. |
