Seaturtles
Seaturtles are large marine reptiles that inhabit oceans and seas around the world. They are characterized by their streamlined bodies, flipper-like limbs, and hard, bony shells. Seaturtles are known for their long migrations, with some species traveling thousands of miles between their nesting and foraging grounds. These fascinating creatures play a vital role in marine ecosystems, helping to maintain the health of coral reefs and seagrass beds. Despite their importance, seaturtles face numerous threats, including habitat destruction, pollution, and poaching. Conservation efforts are underway to protect these iconic marine animals and ensure their survival for future generations.
