***About Loggerhead Sea Turtle: The Loggerhead sea turtle, known scientifically as Caretta caretta, is distinguished by its large head with powerful jaw muscles used to crush prey like crabs and mollusks. This species is the most abundant of all the marine turtle species in U.S. waters but still holds an endangered status due to threats such as habitat loss, accidental capture in fishing gear, pollution, and climate change. Loggerheads have a cosmopolitan range throughout the temperate and tropical regions of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. They play critical roles in marine ecosystems, helping to maintain the health of seagrass beds and coral reefs.
