Sea Turtle, magnetic and Dancing Baby

Dancing Baby Sea Turtles Help Researchers Unravel the Mysteries of Their Navigational Superpowers
These aquatic reptiles swim thousands of miles across the open ocean to return to the same foraging grounds and nesting sites. They don’t always take the shortest, most direct route, but they do eventually get to where they’re going.
These sea turtles ‘dance’ when magnetic fields lead them to a snack
Loggerhead sea turtles ( Caretta caretta) are pretty loyal marine reptiles. Even with their roughly 8,000-mile-long migrations across oceans, they consistently return to the same feeding and nesting sites. Sea turtles can travel these distances by remembering the magnetic signatures of an area and storing that knowledge in a mental map.
Sea turtles ‘dance’ in magnetic fields associated with food, new study finds
Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.
The Surprising Importance of This Adorable Sea Turtle Dance
Sea turtles are capable of creating GPS-like magnetic maps to guide them back to foraging grounds, and they do a little dance when they recognize those spots
Scientists investigated a mystery of the sea. They found dancing turtles.
Sea turtles have long mystified researchers by returning to beaches where they were hatched, magnetic signals may be the key, new research finds.
Sea Turtles Dance to Orientate With Earth's Magnetic Field, Study Reveals
Dancing turtles have proved for the first time that some animals use Earth's magnetic field to create a personal map of their favorite spots, scientists said Wednesday.
Where young sea turtles spend their early lives has always been a mystery - until now
Young sea turtles actively swim and choose their paths instead of drifting. New satellite tracking reveals their movements.
Solving deep-sea mystery: UCF scientists help find sea turtles’ ‘lost years’
For decades, scientists have wondered about what happens during the so-called lost years between when tiny hatchlings leave the beach and when they return to coastlines nearly grown — a span of
Researchers find out how baby sea turtles use magnetic fields to navigate
Researchers found loggerhead turtle hatchlings can be conditioned to recognize magnetic fields, which helps them locate feeding sites.
