16 June - World Sea Turtle Day
Sea turtles are amazing creatures. They can hold their breath for five hours underwater. Sea turtles lay their eggs in a nest they dig in the sand with their rear flippers. The sex of sea turtles, like many other turtles, is determined by the temperature in the nest. They live to about 100 years.
Green sea turtles have a more plant-based diet and eat seagrass. Leatherbacks and hawkbill turtles feed on jellyfish and keep their populations in check. Sea turtles can detect the Earth’s magnetic field and they use it as a compass.
