Orientation and Open-Sea Navigation in Sea Turtles [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1996
ABSTRACT Loggerhead sea turtle hatchlings (Caretta caretta L.) emerge from underground nests, scramble to the sea and begin a transoceanic migration by swimming away from their natal beach and into the open ocean. Evidence suggests that hatchlings sequentially use three different sets of cues to maintain orientation during their initial ...

Decompression sickness (‘the bends’) in sea turtles [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2014
Decompression sickness (DCS), as clinically diagnosed by reversal of symptoms with recompression, has never been reported in aquatic breath-hold diving vertebrates despite the occurrence of tissue gas tensions sufficient for bubble formation and injury in terrestrial animals.
