After the spill, the number of the turtles' nests dropped 40 percent in one year in 2010. "We had never seen a drop that dramatic in one year before," according to Selina Saville Heppell, a professor at Oregon State University. The population climbed in 2011 and 2012 but then fell again in 2013 and 2014, down to levels that haven't been that low in nearly a decade, she said. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert, File) (AP)
