Everyone knows they were hatched from an egg. Besides they don't even have hair so that means that they were hatched.
Turtles do not give birth to live young. All baby turtles, of all species, are hatched from eggs.
Sea turtles: Once hatched from their eggs, baby sea turtles crawl to the ocean on their own to start their journey in the water. Kangaroos: Kangaroo joeys are born very underdeveloped and must climb into their mother's pouch where they continue to grow and develop in a protected environment.
They are born on the beach, and they crawl down the beach to the water.
They are born in eggs on the beach in a nest made of sand
Of course not it just hatched how could it have learned the behavior? It is instinct, but recently it has been proven that instincts can be modified by behavior from very recent predecessors.
They can be killed by seagulls when they have just hatched and also sharks and other sea carnivores when they get older.
It does not.
Because of increasing global temperatures more females have hatched. More males hatch in cooler temps. but global warming is preventing that.
If you are talking about sea turtles, they just head out to the sea even though they never saw anyone do that besides themselves or their brothers and sisters. It is an inherited behavior. They just do it automatically. And pet and freshwater turtles just go inside. They get out of the place they were hatched, and then they go into the water to cool and wash themselves. This behavior is inherited. Baby sea turtles use the presence of natural moonlight to find their way to the coast at night. This is why coastal light pollution is such a problem because it disorients the baby turtles.
that the sea turtles mother leaves her baby sea turtle eggs on the beach until they hatch
It's not that baby turtles are cute or not, it's based on a matter of opinion and/or state of mind.
In common parlance, birth is the beginning of a creature's chronological age. Therefore, a sea turtle is "zero" at birth.
