A turtle mum stunned wildlife experts when she laid an astonishing 131 eggs in a single session on a Spanish beach.
Footage of the record birth on Les Ortigues beach in the town of Guardamar del Segura, in the south-eastern Spanish province of Alicante, in southern Valencia, shows turtle specialists and volunteers helping the mum give birth in the shallow nest she had dug, after having fitted the large animal with a GPS transmitter.
