Sea Turtles
Sea turtles live all over the world. They return to the beach where they were born to lay their eggs. “Nearly all species of sea turtle are classified as endangered. Slaughtered for their eggs, meat, skin and shells, sea turtles suffer from poaching and over-exploitation. They also face habitat destruction and accidental capture in fishing gear.” http://”https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/sea-turtle
Blue Whale
Blue whales are the largest animals to have ever lived on Earth, blue whales can grow to over 30m long and weigh more than 130,000kg (that’s longer than three buses!), it’s tongue weighs as much as an elephant, and its heart is the size of a car. Blue whales can be found in all of our planet’s oceans, except the Arctic, usually swimming alone or in groups of two to four. But in areas where there’s lots of food available, as many as 60 whales may come together. “The blue whale was driven to the brink of extinction by commercial whaling in the 1800s and early 1900s. This species was protected from commercial whaling by the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling in 1966.”https://www.natgeokids.com/nz/discover/animals/sea-life/10-blue-whale-facts/
