Information about Sea Turtles

Many creatures in the ocean have been around a very long time, but sea turtles have been around longer than dinosaurs have. Sea Turtles have been around for over 150 million years. They nest on the beach and live their lives mainly in the ocean. In our modern society, these sea turtles have now become endangered. Wimarcs states on their website, "All sea turtles in US water are endangered." ("Sea Turtles") This illustrates how there are no longer any sea turtles that are safe and they are dying off in large quantities. Although sea turtles have been around for a long time, they face many issues in their environment and they are almost all caused by humans.
