Best Answer

Green sea turtles eat sea grass and algae. They are mainly carnivorous as babies (they will eat fish) and adapt a more herbivorous diet as they age.

Hawks bill sea turtles have jaws shaped to help them get food out of crevices in reefs. They eat squid, sponges, tunicates, shrimp, etc.

Loggerhead sea turtles and the riddley sea turtles have more powerful jaws designed to crush. They eat crabs, mollusks, shrimp, jellyfish, and vegetation.

Leatherback sea turtles eat soft bodied animals such as jellyfish, tunicates, etc.
