Historic sea turtle eggs relocated from 2 Southern California beaches

Biologists have relocated historic olive ridley sea turtle eggs from Seal Beach and Huntington Beach to the Aquarium of the Pacific. This unprecedented action was taken to protect the nests from hazardous, hurricane-driven surf expected over the weekend, which threatened to wash them away. The eggs were carefully collected and transferred on Friday morning to ensure their safety. They will now incubate at the aquarium, safeguarding these rare Southern California coastline discoveries from environmental threats.
