3. Why I picked this topic
• To help my readers understand how
important sea turtles are to the ecosystem
• To provide information on how to protect
this endangered species
• To give tips on what to do if you see a
turtles nest.
4. What Do Sea Turtles Do?
• They graze the bottoms of the ocean getting rid of old
grass and algae. This keeps the grass nutrient rich and
benefits the other fish living in the area.
• They break down hard poisonous sponge so the other
animals can feed on smaller, softer parts.
• They consume large amounts of jellyfish keeping the
population in check.

6. When and Where Do Sea Turtles
Nest?
• Nesting season is from May 1st though
October 31st
• Mama turtles dig holes in the sand and lay
100-150 eggs at a time
• 1 mama turtle can lay up to 8 nests
• Baby turtles hatch 60 days later and use the
reflection of the moon on the water to find the
ocean.

8. What are some dangers to Sea
Turtles
• Street lights by the ocean during nesting
season
• Beach goers that don’t look out for nests
• Litter that can be mistaken for food.
9. What Can You Do?
• During nesting season, keep lights by the
ocean dimmed
• Make sand dunes to prevent the baby turtles
from going towards the street.
• Report a nest to your local wildlife preserve
so they can mark it and keep animals away
from it
• Don’t litter. Sea turtles often mistake plastic
as food and suffocate themselves.
