Thanks to the recent rains, the island is lush and the butterflies are plentiful. Green and hawksbill turtle hatchlings are emerging from their sandy nests trying to avoid the always hungry predators as they attempt to propel themselves across the cool evening sand to the safety of the Caribbean with limbs designed for a marine lifestyle. We humans believe that sea turtles need out help because they nest on land but are designed for an aquatic lifestyle. Therefore we have invested millions in "helping" one of the longest-living (both individually and evolutionarily) species on the planet.
