French islanders celebrate sixth egg-laying of ‘Emma’, a 150 kg green turtle


Saint-Denis de la Réunion (AFP) – Emma, one of Reunion’s two reproductive green turtles, has overcome injury to lay eggs after a four-year wait for the islanders. Emma, 30, weighs 150 kilos and has become a star of the reproduction process since laying her first eggs in 2007, on a secret beach.
