Sea turtles are capable of creating GPS-like magnetic maps to guide them back to foraging grounds, and they do a little dance ...

Earth’s magnetic field is detected by species across the animal kingdom, but new research suggests that sea turtles may be using it in a different way.

Loggerhead turtles can identify specific magnetic signatures, according to a new study, hinting at how the aquatic reptiles manage to return to the same foraging and nesting sites over and over again ...
