Paternity of leatherback turtles was assessed using three microsatellite markers.
Evidence for multiple paternity was found in 4 out of 18 females (22.22%).
Levels of multiple paternity higher than found a decade ago in same population
Bigger population sizes might lead to higher levels of multiple paternity.
Data suggest possible successful inter-nesting mating.
