Discovering the World of Sea Turtles

Sea turtles have existed for over 100 million years, witnessing the rise and fall of dinosaurs. They lay eggs on land, a trait from their terrestrial origins. Of the eight species today, seven belong to the Klonadai family, and one to the democolitier family. Five species inhabit the Mediterranean. Sea turtles have adapted to aquatic life with features like a flattened carapace and flippers. They exhibit complex life cycles, preferring different habitats for nesting, migration, and foraging. Their migratory behavior is notable, traveling thousands of miles annually. Scientists track their movements using satellite beacons.
