The turtle is, according to Dr. Col Limpus of the Queensland government’s Threatened Species Unit, a "one in many hundreds of thousands" hatched.
The group was collecting data from the hatched nest when the albino turtle was discovered.

This albino green sea turtle is very rare.
The survivability for this particular green sea turtle is not good given its color, which would cause it to stand out for predators to pick off. In fact, it is estimated that just 1 in 1,000 green sea turtles reach maturity. They are considered endangered throughout the world due to habitat loss, egg harvesting, pollution, and entanglements in fishing gear.
