The time it takes for a leatherback sea turtle to choke on a plastic bag can vary, but ingestion can lead to immediate distress and potentially fatal consequences. Leatherbacks often mistake plastic bags for jellyfish, their primary food source. Once ingested, the plastic can cause blockages in the digestive system, leading to death within days or weeks if not removed. Therefore, the timeline for choking and subsequent health decline can be very short, depending on the size and type of plastic ingested.
