#Turtle hatchlings find their way to the sea by the light of the moon. Artificial lights draw them towards the land causing exhaustion or death. Keep beachside lights off during nesting season or replace them with turtle friendly lights. Report stranded hatchlings: 938-NEST/6378. https://t.co/1rrzZGiFj1
