Sea turtles are solitary creatures, even babies. A little oil from helping hands wouldn't hurt, but they probably shouldn't be handled as much as this video shows. Babies are in much danger when hatched, so often people protect them until they can be released in the ocean at night safely. In Florida, streetlights are turned off during hatching season esp if known nests are nearby as the babies head for the lights instead of the moonlight shining on the ocean.

@coooookie Actually baby sea turtles wait in their burrow until nightfall anyway. It is the wisest time to make their escape for the ocean. And don't be mistaken, 1 in 1,000 sea turtles live to maturity. That's certainly not the fault of our zoos or these people who decided to save the lives of a bundle of turtles.

I thought that they had more things to worry about if they actually do make it to the ocean....
Poor little guys! They're so helpless and cute but either way they are sill in danger!

a conservation society in Puerto Vallarta released them into the ocean that evening. They make a big deal of it, letting people see the release. This nest was not in a protected area and had it been found by other people these little guys probably wouldn't have survived.
