Field notes
The simulation combines beach and species settings with choices about feeding, shelter, and travel, and displays the turtle’s changing chance of reaching adulthood. Its evidence notes separate published research and administrative data from estimated underwater survival rates, which the site says are difficult to measure directly. Records can be kept in the browser, with controls to transfer or delete them.
