Green Turtle feeding in a seagrass lagoon
The name Green Sea Turtle is not derived from the colour of its shell which is normally brown or olive, but rather green fat that is usually found beneath their upper shell. Green Sea Turtles are mainly herbivores, often feeding on seagrasses and migrating long distances between feeding grounds. They can be found in tropical and subtropical seas worldwide though they are currently an Endangered Species. The main risks to their survival are loss of nesting beaches, entanglement in fishing nets and pollution.
