Louisiana officials announced they discovered the hatchlings of the world’s smallest sea turtle species on an island just off the coast of New Orleans for the first time in 75 years. Officials identified at least 53 sea turtle crawls (the unique paths turtles impress in the sand on their way to the sea) belonging to the endangered Kemp’s ridley turtle at the Breton National Wildlife Refuge on Louisiana’s Chandeleur Islands. Kemp's ridley turtles only grow to be two feet in length, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
