Ahhhhh... free-style swimming.
| Description: | Sea turtles have a lot of varity. For example, the hawksbill turtle isn't more than three feet (occasionally four), yet the pacific leatherback turtle is up to almost eight feet long and can weigh a whopping TWO THOUSAND pounds. The sea turtle (no matter what species) crawls out on to the shore--making it vulnerable to predators--digs a cavity, and deposits the eggs. Then she secretes mucus onto the eggs to stick them together. The babies hatch and often get eaten, but sometimes they'll make it. |
