Researchers and Hatchlings were the focus of this tour. Earlier on in the day Austurtle had rescued a number of hatchlings that did not manage to get to the saltwater before the light of day. This meant that their exposure to predators was significant. The researchers used these hatchlings to promote awareness of the flatback turtle, before our guests released them into the Arafura Sea under the cover of darkness.
