    Confused sea turtles march into restaurant
    2008-08-19 03:39:00
    Here's a very odd news I'd pasted to share about the confusion baby turtles,ROME (Reuters) - About 60 newly hatched sea turtles lost their way during their ritual passage to the sea and marched into an Italian restaurant instead, a conservation worker said on Monday. The baby turtles -- which ended up under the tables of startled diners at the beachside restaurant -- were probably thrown off track and lured by the eatery's bright lights, said Antonio Colucci, who was called to help rescue the group."They saw the artificial lights and took the wrong route," said Colucci, who works on a turtle monitoring project for the conservation group WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature)."The diners were at first quite curious and then someone alerted the coastal authorities."The stranded turtles, which had hatched on a beach in the southern Italian region of Calabria, were released into the sea.Female sea turtles nest on beaches and their offspring instinctively head to the sea after hatching from their...

    The Turtles
    2008-04-28 09:59:57
    The TurtlesA turtle family decided to go on a picnic. Turtles, being naturally slow about things, took seven years to prepare for their outing. Finally the turtle family left home looking for a suitable place. During the second year of their journey they found a place ideal for them at last!For about six months they cleaned the area, unpacked the picnic basket, and completed the arrangements. Then they discovered they had forgotten the salt. A picnic without salt would be a disaster, they all agreed. After a lengthy discussion, the youngest turtle was chosen to retrieve the salt from home. Although he was the fastest of the slow moving turtles, the little turtle whined, cried, and wobbled in his shell. He agreed to go on one condition: that no one would eat until he returned. The family consented and the little turtle left.Three years passed and the little turtle had not returned. Five years... six years... then on the seventh year of his absence, the oldest turtle could no longer cont...

    Migrate With The Whales And Turtles Repositioning Cruises Are A Cheap And Enjoyable Way To Cruise
    2008-04-11 22:06:57
    Thinking of going on a cruise but really don't have the money to spend? Well consider trying a 'repositioning cruise'. Now I know this doesn't sound very tempting or exciting and it does actually sound a little confusing, but bear with me. In reality these are one off voyages that cruise ships make when transferring from one cruise region to another. You could be joining the whales and other seagoing creatures migrating either north in the summer or south for the winter. Repositioning cruises are very popular as the low prices are so appealing and also they are generally longer than a normal cruise giving passengers a truly relaxing cruise holiday, unencumbered by frantic days in port. Many cruise fleets have ships spending most of their time in spring and summer in the Mediterranean then transferring to the sunshine islands of the Caribbean for the winter months. The great thing about a 'repositioning cruise' is that you will experience a real adventure voyage at sea but at a bargain ...

    Pet Turtles Linked to Rise in Salmonella Infections
    2008-01-24 20:21:54
    (HealthDay News) -- Small pet turtles were to blame for 103 cases of Salmonella infection in the second half of last year, mostly in young children, U.S. health officials said Thursday.But the true number of infections with the potentially fatal bacteria is undoubtedly much higher, officials added.Even though the sale of small turtles has been banned in the United States since 1975, the number of these reptiles being purchased for children has been increasing, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."This is a larger number of cases than we would usually see," said Julie Harris, a CDC Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer. "We haven't documented such a large number of cases before associated with turtle exposure."No deaths have been reported, but the infections led to the hospitalization of dozens of children, the CDC said.The number of turtles owned by Americans has almost doubled in the last five years to more than 2 million, Harris said. This, despite the fa...
