Sea turtles

The Plight of  the Sea Turtles

The sea turtles have swum with the dinosaurs a billion years ago. There use to be many species in the past but now there are only 7 species left.

The reason why sea turtles are endangered is because people are killing them and then do illegal things with them. The only reason that sea turtles are getting extinct is not only the reason that people are killing them it is also because sea turtles get tangled up in nets and they sometimes choke on plastic bags and things made out of plastic.

But there is a solution to this problem. We can pick up plastic bags, look after the beaches, stop disturbing places where sea turtles lay their eggs and where they live and the most important way to stop this is to stop buying things from the black market  made out of turtle shells.
