Leatherback turtles primarily feed on jellyfish, but they tend to prefer certain species, such as those in the Aurelia and Chrysaora families. While they can consume a variety of jellyfish, their diet is influenced by availability and the turtles' ability to digest different types. Some jellyfish may be less nutritious or difficult for leatherbacks to eat, so their diet is not exclusively composed of all jellyfish types.
