## Caption

Under the cover of more gentle red light, officials from the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources release leatherback sea #turtle hatchlings into the sea in the evening on February 3, 2021 in #PhangNga, #Thailand. Possibly due to reduced tourism levels along the Andaman Coast, this threatened species of sea turtle is returning to nest in the area in record-breaking numbers not seen in over a decade. 📷: Sirachai Arunrugstichai shinalodon #GettyImagesNews #wildlife #conservation #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #wildlifeplanet #naturelovers⁠⠀
