Why turtles die early?
Turtles lay their eggs and bury them in sand on a beach. When the hatchlings emerge from the eggs and dig themselves out, their instinct is to head down the beach to the sea. Unfortunately, many predators (gulls, foxes, etc) are waiting to snatch them up and eat them. Even when they reach the sea, predators (sharks, seals, etc) are waiting off shore. By laying thousands of eggs during the same time period, hatching all together, by sheer mass of numbers, at least some will survive to adulthood - enough to perpetrate the species.
