Olive Ridley Trutle

Introduction
In this project we are going to learn about the sea turtle that arrives to our beaches to lay their eggs.,( Puerto Vallarta and Nayarit)
We will make a small report about what welooked on the internet, a little information about this specie and then with the information that we get in the school trip we will make a report about what the people os the turtle camping told us andthe things we saw at that time.

Information of the olive ridley
also known as the Pacific Ridley, is a species of sea turtle. The Olive Ridley is the smallest extant sea turtle, with an adultcarapace length averaging 60 to 70 cm. The head has concave sides, most obvious on the upper part of the short snout. It has paddle-like forelimbs, each having two anterior claws.
The Olive Ridley turtlehas a cirumtropical distribution living in tropical and warm waters of the Pacific. Historically, this species has been widely regarded as the most abundant sea turtle in the world.
The OliveRidley is predominantly carnivorous, especially in immature stages of the life cycle. Animal prey consists of protochordates or invertebrates, which can be caught in shallow marine waters or estuarinehabitats. Common prey items include jelly fish, tunicates, sea urchins, bryozoans, bivalves, snails, shrimp, crabs, rock lobsters, and sipunculid worms. Additionally, consumption of jelly fish and bothadult fish and fish eggs may be indicative of pelagic (open ocean) feeding.
Reproduction
Olive Ridleys generally begin to aggregate near nesting beaches approximately two months before nestingseason, although this may vary throughout its range. In the eastern Pacific, nesting occurs throughout the year with peak nesting events occurring between September and December.
Nesting events are usuallynocturnal.
Females can lay up to three clutches per season, but most will only lay one or two clutches 2. The female will remain near shore for the inter-nesting period, which is approximately one...
