description: Sea turtles lay their eggs in only
a few places, always the same beaches. The female turtles struggle up the beach
to a place above the high water mark. There they dig a shallow pit with their
fore flippers, and lie in it. The hind flippers are then used to dig a deeper
pit, into which the eggs are dropped. The number of eggs varies but the usual
amount is around 100.
