Millions of sea turtles once roamed the earths oceans. Within the past five centuries, trade in sea turtle meat, eggs, shells, oil, and leather has driven almost every species to the brink of extinction. Explore the world of the sea turtle in this engaging book. Learn their general characteristics, how they navigate underwater, who their predators are, what human threats exist, and where conservation efforts are being made worldwide. Jeff Ripple profiles every species of sea turtle from the loggerhead to the leatherback. More than 60 breath-taking photographs capture these fascinating creatures underwater and on land.

Reviews
YA. These excellent resources include everything students will need for reports: distribution, biology, behavior, historical background, conservation techniques, and future trends. All of these topics are covered in the clear, easy-to-read texts. The books are lavishly illustrated with more than 50 full-color photographs that bring these animals to vibrant life. The authors are all leading experts in their fields. Unfortunately, Humpback Whales and Tigers have no index or bibliography. They do have a short fact sheet with a recommended reading list. Despite these flaws, these titles will be well used for research and enjoyed as general reading.?Robin Deffendall, Prince William Public Library System, VA
