Sea turtle nest found under house on Dauphin Island
SUMMARY: A recently discovered sea turtle nest on Dolphin Island, found under a house, may yield more male hatchlings due to its cooler temperature. Sea turtle genders are influenced by nesting temperatures: below 82°F tends to produce males, while above 83°F usually results in females. The nest’s shaded location keeps the sand cooler, akin to an incubator, affecting both the sex ratio and hatching time, which may exceed the typical 55 to 60 days. The amount of light and heat exposure will ultimately determine when the eggs hatch, potentially complicating the turtles’ emergence timing.
The unusual location of a recently discovered sea turtle nest on Dauphin Island could have an impact on the gender and timing of the hatchlings.
