Loggerhead sea turtles laid a record 4,292 nests on Georgia beaches this year, a major rebound from a low of just 358 nests in 2004. The count marks a hard-won recovery for the threatened species, credited to decades of conservation work along the state's coast. The milestone is drawing attention from wildlife and ocean conservation communities.

Why now: The record nesting count signals a notable conservation success for an endangered species.
