Sea Turtle Hatchling Habitats – Florida *COMING SOON*

Experience the natural wonders of Florida with this captivating 3D pop-up card showcasing newly-hatched sea turtles journeying toward the welcoming waves of their ocean home. Visitors are often surprised to learn that more than 100,000 threatened and endangered sea turtles nest on Florida beaches every summer. In fact, nearly 90% of sea turtle nesting in the U.S. occurs in Florida from March through October of each year. Florida’s most common variety of sea turtle is the loggerhead, which averages 200 to 250 pounds. Larger, endangered leatherbacks and green turtles nest in Florida in smaller numbers. Many factors work against endangered turtle populations, including loss of nesting habitat. Hatchlings, which use moonlight to navigate from the nest to the shore, can be misled by artificial lights. Baby turtles are small and vulnerable to predators on land and at sea. A heartfelt keepsake for anyone who cherishes these unique ocean creatures. © Anderson Design Group, Inc. All rights rese
