About 60 newly hatched sea turtles lost their way during their ritual passage to the sea and marched into an Italian restaurant instead, a Reuters report said.
The baby turtles – which ended up under the tables of startled diners at the beachside restaurant – were probably thrown off track and lured by the eatery’s bright lights, Antonio Colucci of conservation group WWF (Worldwide Fund for Nature), was quoted saying.
The stranded turtles, which had hatched on a beach in the southern Italian region of Calabria, were released into the sea.
