Em uma notícia no mínimo inusitada, aproximadamente 150 tartarugas "invadiram" a pista 4L do aeroporto John F. Kennedy , em Nova York, hoje de manhã. Dezenas de voos tiveram que ser realocados e sofreram atrasos em função das tartarugas de dorso de diamante que estavam a caminho da praia para pôr seus ovos. A migração costuma durar alguns dias e geralmente acontece no final de junho ou início de julho. De acordo com a Port Authority, proprietária dos aeroportos de Nova York e Nova Jersey, as tartarugas foram transportadas pelo aeroporto e as operações já voltaram ao normal.

Turtles Invade JFK Airport, Cause Flight Delays
AOL news
Posted Jun 29th 2011 11:15 AM
Turtles invaded the runway at JFK on Wednesday morning, delaying flights.
JetBlue airlines tweeted at around 9:30am that there were flight delays as the runway was being cleared of turtles, saying: "JFK is experiencing delays as the airport clears turtles off the runway. #cantmakethisup (Check flight status at jetblue.com.)."
Officials told the New York Post that, indeed, several turtles climbed onto the tarmac, delaying some flights.
Odd as it may seem, this isn't the first time turtles have disrupted flights at JFK. In July 2009, a runway at JFK was shut down after 78 turtles emerged from a bay and crawled onto the tarmac. Ground crews rounded up the turtles and returned them to the water.
An FAA spokesman told the Associated Press at the time, "Apparently, this is something the tower has experienced before. I guess it's the season for spawning."
UPDATE: Port Authority spokesman Ron Marsico told MSNBC that 150 turtles came out of the bay to lay their eggs on a sandy beach area across the runway, adding "staff has been out there since quarter to 7 this morning relocating them."
