Scientists Report Decline in Giant Sea Turtles Sightings Off West Coast CBS SF Bay Area 5 hrs ago Syndicated Local – CBS San Francisco MONTEREY (CBS SF/AP) Nearly 40 years ago, scientists documented stranded sea turtles on California’s beaches and noticed that leatherbacks massive sea turtles that date to the time of the dinosaurs were among those washing up on shore. It was strange because the nearest known population of the giants was several thousand miles away in the waters of Central and South America. Their mysterious presence led researchers to a startling discovery. A subset of leatherbacks that hatches on beaches in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands were migrating 7,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean to the cold waters off the U.S. West Coast, where they gorged on jellyfish before swimming back. The epic journey stunned scientists.
