Green Turtle
Noms alternatifs : Chelonia mydas
The Green sea turtle can be found in tropical, subtropical and temperate seas around the world. Its a large turtle with a smooth brownish-olive carapace. Their name doesn't come from the color of their shell but from the color of the fat found under their shell. Unlike some other species of turtles, the green turtle can't retract their flippers and heads in their shells.
Unfortunately, the green sea turtles are also listed as an endangered species.
