This footage was filmed and produced 15 June 2023.

A frustrated endangered loggerhead sea turtle attempted to lay her eggs too early on a Spanish beach Cala Capitan before returning to the sea.

The pregnant turtle, classified as "vulnerable" was observed by a beach cleaner in Orihuela, in Alicante, Spain on June 15th.

As her eggs were not yet mature, marine experts from Valancia's universities fitted her with a transmitter and witnessed her return to the sea. The experts will now monitor her movements when she comes back to lay her eggs.

Loggerhead sea turtles face conservation challenges related to entanglement in fishing gear and plastic pollution.
