It is usual for volunteers to make sure that hundreds of sea turtles (海龜) that hatch (孵化) on the beaches of the Caribbean Island,can move to the sea each year.The task usually includes keeping an eye on them.This year,they had to do something they have never done before-Build a human wall for some of the little ones that may go the wrong way to the sea.
It all began when volunteers on Bonaire Island noticed a group of turtles hatching a little further out on the beach,closer to the airport.It's a problem because once they hatch,the babies usually look for the moonlight which guides them to the sea.However,when the turtles are born so close to the airport,they may think the bright light from the airport as the moonlight by mistake,and often,end up moving in the wrong direction.A few years ago,a whole group of turtles were killed after they moved upon a busy road.
In order to stop this from happening again,the volunteers kept a close eye on the turtles' eggs as they began to hatch.Then on July 1st came the big day when the little turtles were ready to make their long trip to the water.In order to make sure they followed the light from the Moon but not the one from the airport,the volunteers came together and built a human wall around the turtles to stop them from seeing the light from the airport.Sure enough,all one hundred and twelve turtles moved in the right direction and made them to the sea safely.
