Saving nature's unborn from Gulf oil disaster
Description: A U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist removes eggs from a sea turtle's nest one at a time at a Florida beach. This process is part of an unprecedented sea turtle relocation program. Moving sea turtle nests days before the eggs are to hatch has never been done before. It is also the first time that wildlife experts had to deal with oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico.
