The greatest danger of predation for leatherback sea turtles occurs when they have just hatched. They are very small, obviously, and must reach the water from the sand. During this time they are easily carried away as dinner by birds, crustaceans, other reptiles and, unfortunately, people, who should know better before making a meal of animal high so highly placed on the endangered species list. Very few leatherback sea turtles survive to adulthood.
The biggest predator for the turtle is humans.

When sea turtles are young they really have no defenses against prey. They're only chance of survival is to find a bed of floating algae to hide themselves in and feed on until they make it to other sea turtle populations. Sea turtles usually travel in fairly large groups keeping them safe and have quite an intimidatingly large size at adulthood.
Sea Turtles tend to prey on Lion's Mane jellyfish.
The Green Turtles use they're bird like beak to attack soft prey such as jellyfish.
