Green sea turtles have started laying eggs in Turkey's southern province of Adana. The Akyatan Wildlife Development Area, an internationally important wetland, located between Akyatan -- the largest lagoon of Cukurova Delta -- and the Mediterranean, welcomes green sea turtles every summer. Volunteers and officials have been on night watch along the 22-kilometer (13.6-mile) coast.
