*** About Sea Turtle: Sea turtles are marine reptiles that have existed since the time of the dinosaurs, making them one of the oldest surviving creatures on earth. There are seven different species of sea turtles, most of which are now classified as threatened or endangered due to human activities like habitat destruction, pollution, and illegal trade. They play crucial roles in ocean ecosystems, helping maintain the health of seagrass beds and coral reefs. Despite their longevity, sea turtles face numerous threats during their long lives, which can span several decades. Conservation efforts are critical in ensuring the survival of these magnificent creatures, with various international and national projects aimed at protecting nesting sites and reducing bycatch in fishing gear.
