About this episode

This episode explores how sea turtles navigate using Earth's magnetic field and the impact of wireless radiation on this process.

Sea turtles navigate thousands of miles using Earth's magnetic field — but wireless radiation disrupts this ancient system. New research reveals that loggerhead turtles use two separate magnetic sensing mechanisms, and radiofrequency fields can selectively interfere with one while leaving the other intact. This discovery has profound implications for understanding how wireless radiation affects biological systems that evolved over millions of years. In This Episode How sea turtles create magnetic maps of ocean locations Two distinct biological magnetoreception systems in one animal Why RF interference patterns matter for human health Featured Study Read the full study: Learned magnetic map cues and two mechanisms of magnetoreception in turtles See all studies at shieldyourbody.com/research
