The Loggerhead Turtle has been in our seas for the last 100 million years. Their eating process recycles essential nutrients which balance ocean floor sediments. 100 species have been recorded living on a single turtle as they transport communities of tiny plants and animals on their shells as a sort of mini habitat. However, they’re being threatened by human intervention through bycatch and tourism development on nesting beaches. We must find a way to protect them.
