THE HUMAN WALL
Every spring, female Loggerhead sea turtles lay their eggs on the sandy shores of
the Caribbean island of Bonaire. The baby turtles hatch 45 - 95 days later. They're
bom with the innate instinct to head toward the brightest light. Usually, this bright
light is the moonlight reflecting off the ocean. So, guided by the moonlight,
hatchlings frek across the sand into the waves.
Unfortunately, tragedy struck when newly hatched turtles were drawn to the
bright lights of an airport near the beach. Rather than head towards the moonlit
ocean, the baby turtles stumbled inland. A whole group of newborn turtles
perished when they crawled onto a busy street toward the man-
made light,
The people of Bonaire had a
dilemma to solve. They came up with
a plan to ensure future hatchlings
headed in the right direction toward
the sea. When the turtle eggs began
hatching, volunteers formed a hurlan
wall. This wall of people successfully
blocked out the artificial light from the
airport. The wall extended in two
parallel lines from the sandy shores
down to the ocean waters. Lining the
beach in this way, the volunteers
created a pathway that safely guided
the baby turtles into the sea.
