sea turtles have a salt gland to rid their bodies of excess salt. This gland empties into the sea turtles’ eyes. The secretion of salt and fluid makes them look as if they are “crying” when they come ashore. These “tears” also help keep the eyes free of sand while females dig their nests.(https://seaworld.org/en/animal-info/animal-infobooks/sea-turtles/adaptations)
