OMG!!! Curse these peoples!! How could they do this??!! Poor turtle, in one picture its watching helplessly as its babies go away, :mad::(

When I seen this I had to check it out. Fortunately, the story is wrong. The photos are real but this is actually part of a conservation effort that was put into place 13 years ago.

Here is the snopes link.


And here is the link for the conservation site.
