turtles block JFK airport

Snail operation? No, it was diamond turtles migrating to a beach to lay their eggs that forced some planes to be patient on Friday, reports The Parisian.

“Some planes were briefly blocked in the queue” confirmed Friday evening a spokesperson for the airport, Cheryl Albiez, with the New York Daily News.

The turtles lost on the tarmac, between 40 and 50 according to the media, were recovered by specialists and released to a safe place.
