They find them in shallow or deep waters.
The largest sea turtles are the leatherbacks
no it is definetley not likely that green sea turtles are edible but loggerheads and leatherbacks are
Yes, they are the same, Leatherbacks only live in the sea
Because leatherbacks primarily eat jellyfish. They have two sharply pointed cusps, one on the upper and one on the lower jaw that allows them to pierce jellies and other soft-bodied organisms.
They're not 'afraid' - as they lack the intelligence to know when they're in danger. Leatherbacks eat jellyfish as part of their natural diet.
Since there were no conservation programs around at the time, documentation of how many leatherback turtles were around during the 1900s is non-existent.
then the prey will run out of food. Soon those animals might become endangered and that will cause a ripple in the ocean.
Yes! Leatherbacks are the biggest turtles on the planet! They can weigh more than 2,000 lbs. (907 kg.), and are usually more than six feet (two meters) long! Wowzerz!
The Italian Leatherback morph was developed in Italy by Allesandro. The leatherback name gives you a pretty good idea of what this gene does. The back of a leatherback dragon is smooth, with a leather feel, this morph is a co-dominant gene. To produce Italian leatherbacks you need only one parent to be leather. this will produce about 50% leatherback offspring, while the other 50% will be normal scaled. pairing 2 Italian leatherbacks together will produce silkbacks and pairing a leatherback with a recessive leather should produce microscale leatherbacks.
