Today, there are seven species of sea turtles with the largest being the leatherback. What are your thoughts on these aquatic animals?

We swam with sea turtles in Okinawa in Japan where the water is crystal clear, they're so adorable ❤ Sadly, in many places around South East Asia they choke themselves on plastic bags floating around the coastal waters. We need to put an end to polluting oceans and educate locals on the dangers too.

on December 1st, 2020, I had the amazing opportunity to see 5 sea turtles come out from the pacific Mexican sea and leave their eggs in the sand. IT WAS AMAZING!! We were just walking and it was already dark and very windy, there were some people around trying to steal the eggs but somehow, my family and the people at the hotel managed to protect the eggs from being stolen. The turtles laid about 400 eggs in total!! and they were taken to the sea turtle conservation camp that night :)

turtles are so cool, and they have been around for so long. so fascinating
(Fun fact) the patterns on turtle shells are made of many giant scales called scutes that connect to make the pattern. They mostly act as protection for the shell underneath. The scutes are made of keratin like fingernails, toenails, beaks, and hair.

Woah! I was surprised they are the oldest known ancestor. It's heart-wrenching..mothers and their children can't meet each other ever in their life.
Blimey! Love sea turtles. Watching this to calm my nerves. The first time I flew on a plane, I imagined I was one as the plane dipped and landed. I was on Finch's travel sickness pills(?) but it worked. Taking off I imagined I was Pegasus with a herd of running horses... Then I lifted off with the aircraft!

I went to Florida and some sea turtles which were blown off from the Caribbean to the coast of Massachusetts. There were doctors who drove from Florida to Massachusetts and went back to Florida.
That shot where the drowned turtle was caught as bycatch made my stomach turn with anger and emotion.

Happy World Turtles Day!
what a beautiful nature
Ill try making an organization when im older to help with all marine life especially turtles and dolphins! We cant let these majestic, beautiful creatures go extinct! A lot of rivers, beaches, lakes and seas in the world are dying and being harmed because of pollution. We as humans, possibly the smartest animals on earth have to think of something to fix world problems! We are so advanced yet, we cant do anything about, almost everything in this world. Let's stop harming the planet and save our mother earth!
