Is Green Turtle Hatching in Fernando de Noronha happening right now?

As of today, peak season now, through ~June 30. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.

Green turtles (Chelonia mydas) nest on the beaches of Fernando de Noronha from about December to June.

After roughly two months of incubation, hatchlings emerge from about February to August and make their run to the sea, giving visitors a chance to witness one of the world's most endangered marine species at the very start of life.
