Loggerhead
tortoises are endangered and the most dangerous period of their life is
when they cross from their nest to the sea. That's because birds find
the little cuties to be tasty little snacks. Fortunately, this July 1,
when 100 loggerheads recently headed to the sea from the Caribbean
island of Bonaire, there were plenty of volunteers there to help guide
the little babes to the ocean without fear of attack -and to keep them
from getting lost on their short journey.
