Went on a vacation to mexico 15 years ago and one night the staff had people on the beach and were handing out baby turtles to release on the beach. Naturally I took part, as did a lot of kids.. guess what happened when the tide came in and hit the kids feet 10 seconds later.. they screamed and laughed and started running in the direction and stomping where they just let the turtles go. Wouldn’t be surprised if a few didn’t make it past 30 seconds because of those kids.
