Loggerhead sea turtles laid a record 4,292 nests on Georgia beaches this year, marking a hard-won recovery for the threatened species. The number is a dramatic rebound from a low of just 358 nests in 2004, credited to decades of conservation work along the state's coastline. Wildlife advocates are celebrating the milestone as evidence that long-term protection efforts for endangered marine life are paying off.

Why now: News of a record nesting season offers rare good news about an endangered species' recovery, drawing wide attention from conservation audiences.
