Background

This green turtle (ID no. G080) has returned to Alagadi to breed approximately every 3 years since 1998. After being satellite tagged following her third clutch of this year, she remained in the vicinity of the beach for around 23 days to lay two more clutches before migrating south west to her foraging ground.
