Best Answer

Suriname doesn't have a national animal or insect. But four endangered sea turtles are popularly linked with Suriname. Green [Chelonia mydas], hawksbill [Eretmochelys imbricata], leatherback [Dermochelys coriacea], and olive ridley [Lepidochelys olivacea] all nest in Suriname. The Galibi Nature Reserve in northern Suriname was established as a national reserve in 1969 to protect them.
