Sea turtles are amazing creatures that have been around for millions of years. Sadly, they are now endangered and facing extinction. There are many reasons for this, including habitat loss, pollution, and hunting.

All sea turtles live in the ocean, but they often come to shore to lay their eggs. Once the eggs hatch, the baby turtles make their way back to the water. This journey is often fraught with danger, as they are easy prey for predators.

Sadly, sea turtles are in danger of extinction. We must do what we can to protect them and their habitat. We can start by reducing our own impact on the environment. For example, we can reduce our plastic use, as plastic pollution is a major threat to these creatures. We can also support organizations that are working to protect sea turtles.

Do your part to help save these amazing creatures!
