The finale of beloved David Attenborough documentary Planet Earth 2 aired on BBC One last night – so rather than burst into tears at the prospect of a Sunday night without fresh Dave, we thought we’d bring you some great news:
- The BBC crew saved EVERY BABY TURTLE THEY SAW THAT STRAYED OFF THE BEACH!
If you’ve not seen the final episode of Planet Earth 2, based in and around cities across the world, then this will make very little sense.
But for those of you who did see it, this will be truly astounding news. We were almost brought to tears by the little baby turtles who dazed and confused by the bright lights of the nearby city, were disorientated into heading for the roads rather than the beaches, and found themselves trapped in plastic cups, drains, gutters and even crushed by cars as a result.
