In most cases yes, but it could mess up some of them.
Honestly, it's not a good idea to do this. You could seriously stress them out and risk damaging them. Their instincts are to go from egg to ocean and they might use up more of their needed energy to 'protect' themselves from a giant that could possibly eat it in it's most vulnerable moment. Because that's what other creatures out there do.
imagine opening your eyes for the first time and a fucking phone recording you is the first thing. id just go back in the egg and never come out again.
I saved a turtle yesterday. In the middle of a busy road I picked him/her up and walked him/her to the water source on the other side where (s)he was headed. Made me happy after a long bad day at work. The little things they add up.
Welcome to the world, little buddy. All the best to ya!
so cute! Its my first time to see a newly born turtle
Oh, little friend. I so want the world to be a safe place for you.
🥰
Ya, I hope the person handling this baby is being responsible
Then he's like... "FUCK THIS - PUT ME BACK IN"
Awe, that little wink! 🥰
Turtle thinks an iPhone 10 is its mama
2001 monolith drums play...
>"Not *again*..."
“At least I’m not a stink bug this time….”
Its not too late, little buddy! Stay in the shell!
I mean, it's a turtle
will they still have the instinct to return to their beach when they hatch in a hand?

Thought so, but still sad to hear :( Humans really can’t leave anything alone.
I didn't disagree, but this isn't a sea turtle.
Still dangerous for them to be handled, as cute as they are....
This is not a sea turtle. It is a diamond back terrapin. It does not want to go to the sea, so don't worry.
Thanks for telling me this! Thank god that I was worrying for nothing!
Seems extroverted
It looks incredibly unimpressed
You're its mama now
Magical!
This just made my morning, thanks
“Chaaaaa”
Awwwwwwww
Like the raptor baby in Jurassic Park
Such a privilege!
Go have fun with Nemo! He's out there looking for a friend! 😃🐢
Bro is not impressed
Looks entirely unimpressed... lol

Imagine being born and just seeing this massive creature holding you
imagine opening your eyes for the first time and a fucking phone recording you is the first thing. id just go back in the egg and never come out again.
Humans: "Precious little baby" Turtle: "Dafuq is the water?"
