A Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) in the tropical Pacific, Napili Beach, Maui, Hawaii 2016. Photographed in-situ. The IUCN lists this species as endangered. Population declines have been reported. Animals are frequently caught as bycatch in fishing nets, drowning the individual in the process. Conversion of nesting beaches to homes and resorts has reduced available nesting habitat. | |
