A sea turtle laid some eggs in Boracay

Is this a sign that Boracay has become a healthy environment for all bright and beautiful?

An Olive Ridley sea turtle was found laying eggs on the beachfront of the Movenpick Resort and Spa in Boracay on Tuesday.

Considered among vulnerable species due to its decreasing population, the turtle was discovered to lay over 106 eggs, according to the resort's announcement on Facebook.

According to reporter Peewee C. Bacuño, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) quickly came to the area and built a fence around the eggs to protect them.

Movenpick said that they'll be taking care of the eggs until they hatch after 45 to 75 days and are ready to explore the ocean.

The occurrence proves to be quite strange since sea turtles are known to lay eggs in hidden areas where no human can disturb them.

But marine biologist Haron Deo Vargas saw this as an indicator that despite the humans' presence, the sea turtle trusts the beach enough that her eggs won't disappear.

Because the Olive Ridley sea turtle population is already vulnerable, the law prohibits people from capturing, killing or domesticating these turtles. — With reports from Peewee Bacuno and Kaela Malig/LA, GMA News
