Author’s Note I think turtles are very interesting animals. Some things I learned are that when the mother turtle goes to get food she covers her egg in soil. Another thing I learned is that when the eggs hatch they have to be separated for a couple of days. One thing I want to tell the world is that when the turtles hatch their mother’s leave them, so if you see a baby turtle laying on the sand give it some clean food so it won’t die.
