Jaguars Gorge on Sea Turtles | Untamed

On the Pacific coast of Costa Rica exists a beach where tens of thousands of olive ridley sea turtles come ashore to lay eggs and with all these turtles on the beach a powerful and unusual predator is taking notice of the arrival my name is Philippe de andrade and I’m a National Geographic wildlife filmmaker it looks like one of the alpha males and then a juvenile male my passion for animals has taken me across the world and given me a deep appreciation for this fern for season two of untape we’ll be exploring one of the most biologically diverse countries in the world Costa Rica this female olive ridley sea turtle is returning from the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean she may have traveled up to 2,000 miles since last year in the shallow waters of this coast maybe her home for the next few weeks at 15 years old she sexually mature and ready to pass on the next generation of olive ridley sea turtles as she makes her way into this alien world she now feels the full force of gravity in the fins that allowed her to glide so effortlessly in the water struggled to crawl on land for the next 45 minutes she will lay her eggs but she is not alone [Music] joined by tens of thousands of nesting mothers they will produce over 1 million eggs this nesting season making this single Beach responsible for many of the world’s Olive Ridley sea turtles [Music] this nesting behavior will last for the next three days but the majority of the turtles coming out at night it is known as the ADI bottom which is Spanish for a rival if scientists aren’t exactly sure why or how the turtles synchronized their nesting period this way but it’s believed that at one point there were so many predators that the turtles had to overwhelm she was found in the mangroves over 50 yards away from her nest site the casualty of the ADI Barra but it takes an incredible amount of strength to drag a 100-pound turtle off the beach not just any predator could have done this the Jaguar is not just any predator they are the largest cats in the Americas and have the strongest bite force of any big cat in the world this area of Costa Rica may have one of the highest concentrations of Jaguars in all of Central America and they are on this beach because of the Turks with this many big cats in a small area you would think that fights would break out overfeeding friends this is the first ever documented footage of two would-be rival male Jaguars sharing a kill biologist studying this behavior have a new theory for big cats in the area that when there’s enough food for everyone competition decreases in a rare communal side to these predators is revealed only a small percentage of turtles are taken by Jaguars on this Beach every year considering that over a hundred thousand Turtles come here to nest most of them lay their eggs on scale the natural phenomenon that is the adobado ensures not only the preservation of the turtles but also the species that surround this beach this is one of the few remaining safe havens for Jaguars on our planet and one of the main factors to them thriving here is that body bottom [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you
