Tortue Luth "Dermochelys coriacea" venant pondre dans le sable d'une plage de Guyane. Quant elle a évacué tous les oeufs de son tractus génital, elle comble le nid avec du sable à l'aide de ses pattes arrières, puis brouille l'emplacement de la ponte en effectuant des déplacements plus ou moins circulaires accompagnés de balayages.
