This magnetic field, generated deep within the Earth's core, is like a global compass guiding animals through terrains that span from the depths of the oceans to the sprawling landscapes of our world. The U.S. Geological Survey, an authority in Earth sciences, has uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that certain animals, including sea turtles, possess an innate ability to sense and harness the Earth's magnetic field. This magnetic mastery is crucial for their remarkable navigational fea...
