Two columns of grooves near the water's edge mark a sea turtle false crawl on the Santa Rosa Island Range July 14 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. A false crawl indicates the sea turtle came ashore to lay eggs, but changed her mind.The 96th Civil Engineer Group’s Jackson Guard biologists and volunteers track and monitor the endangered species’ activity on the littoral range. The information they gather is used to avoid and protect wildlife during military test and training missions.(U.S. Air Force photo/Ilka Cole)
