Haha, no I read the title and thought the exact same thing.
I was like, uhh does the author think they're ugly or something?

Because they took it from a quote.
>"They are absolutely beautiful, tiny turtles … about the size of a 20-cent piece with a beautiful distinct pattern on their back," Hunter Local Land Services' (HLLS) Rye Gollan said.
They wanted to have the order of the words as 'tiny beautiful' instead of 'beautiful tiny' so they "quoted" one part of their comment. If they would have said 'beautiful tiny' they would have quoted it like
>'Beautiful, tiny' endangered turtle hatchlings spotted in the wild for first time in four years
For whatever reason the author/editor/publication company didn't like how that was phrased and swapped it, but still wanted to quote them to give the title more merit.

Kubo and the Two Strings was such a fucking mind blow for me.
I was pet sitting for someone and fell asleep watching Moana (I think?) on their couch and woke up to Kubo either starting or just recommended.
That shit was so fucking good in ways I didn't expect.
