Best Answer

As a matter of fact, the conservation status of the leatherback sea turtle is Critically Endangered. They are threatened by pollution (both floating trash and chemical pollution), as well as accidentally being caught in fishing nets. That is one reason that it's best to buy line-caught fish.

AnswerYes!

The leatherback turtle species is so old, seeing one i like seeing a dinosaur. Their species is endangered. They are getting poached for eggs. Also with littering, plastic bags are going into the ocean and leatherback turtles are mistaking it for jellyfish. They swallow, choke, and their population is decreasing fast!
