Southward Migration?

You bet. At the same time that many of "our" birds are returning from their wintering grounds in the southern US and Latin America, some marine mammals are moving south to warmer waters for their breeding season.

Learn more about sea turtle migration, threats to their survival, watch an underwater video, and follow 11 leatherbacks on their southbound journey. Check out The Great Turtle Race today!
