History

Sea turtles are among the most magnificent creatures swimming in the ocean today. They also play an important role in keeping their ocean habitat tidy by feasting on seagrass. This keeps it from getting overgrown and harming other marine creatures. Leatherbacks and Hawksbill turtles are also known to diet on Jellyfish, which helps to keep that population in check. And while sea turtles frequently rise to the surface to breathe during active times, if theyre resting some can hold their breath for several hours underwater.
