Disturbing coincidence


On last year’s field trip we had been looking for clear evidence of crocodiles attacking adult sea turtles. It came in the form of finding a dead flatback on the sand flats of the north west corner of the island about an hour before we were to leave the island. This year we were looking for more evidence. In a bizarre coincidence, the first clear sign we found was of the dead turtle in the previous post - we found the turtle in exactly the same spot where we found the one last year and we found it about an hour before we left the island!
