*** About Sea Turtles: Sea turtles are marine reptiles that have inhabited the Earth's oceans for millions of years. They are distinguished by their large shells and non-retractable heads. Eight species of sea turtles are recognized, each with unique physical and behavioral characteristics. These creatures are highly migratory, traversing vast ocean distanes to feed and breed. Sea turtles play a crucial role in marine ecosystems by maintaining healthy seagrass beds and coral reefs, aiding the nutrient cycle between land and sea. However, they face numerous threats such as habitat destruction, pollution, accidental capture in fishing gear, and climate change. Conservation efforts for these ancient mariners are crucial in ensuring their survival for future generations.
