Breeding Galore

How would you like to see hundreds of thousands of ancient reptiles converge in a beach to breed and lay their eggs?

Come to Ostional Beach in Costa Rica, one of the nation's obscure areas, and witness this spectacle. Hundreds of thousands of olive ridley turtles, whose existence date back to ancient times, troop to the Beach's black sands to lay down millions of eggs. That's too much for any predator to bear. Just a warning, though: be careful with your movement as it is nearly impossible not to step on an egg with each step.
