An extended heat wave and drought in the Peruvian Amazon have accelerated the hatching of thousands of baby yellow-spotted river turtles, also known as taricayas. Biologists released the hatchlings into the Amazon river as part of a local environmental program. The shortened incubation period has led to the early release of the turtles, marking a positive impact on the local ecosystem.
