Noah

Turtle ID Code: GR372

Noah is an on-off visitor to the lagoon in Kuredu. Some months of the year you can’t seem to escape her; she is everywhere. In September 2019 we saw her ten times! Other months, however, she seems to be on vacation somewhere else. But when you see her, keep in mind that she has no recollection of personal space. While taking photo ID pictures our biologist often has to back away from her since she will not be deterred from her path. If she wants to swim in one direction, she will do so, no matter what or who is in the way. That is Noah!
