Eggs look like ping pong ball

Artificial lighting confuses hatchlings

Turtles live in the ocean

Under the sea turtles swim fast

Reptiles are cold blooded

Lots of plastic bags get into the sea turtles

Eggs like hatchling get eaten by ants and crabs

Sea turtles have pretty shells

Dian Fossey

Dian Fossey

Dian Fossey was an American primatologist and conservationist. She liked to look after gorillas so people don’t kill them. She protected gorillas for 18 years and  then people killed Dian Fossey because they didn't like her looking after the gorillas. Now the people can kill gorillas because they killed Dian Fossey.

Save the sea turtles
