Hurricane Erin threatens sea turtle nests
Hurricane Erin's high tides are impacting sea turtle nests along Florida's First Coast, leading to concerns about nest survival. Jacksonville University's sea turtle program is closely monitoring the situation, noting that nearly all nests in Duval County have been affected by the rising waters. While some nests may withstand brief periods of flooding, significant losses are anticipated, particularly as the nesting season nears its end.
