Sea turtles are ancient marine reptiles that have been around for more than 100 million years. These remarkable creatures play vital roles in marine ecosystems. One lesser-known fact is that temperature during egg incubation determines the sex of the hatchlings, with warmer temperatures producing females and cooler temperatures producing males. Sea turtles are known for their incredible navigational abilities during long migrations, sometimes spanning thousands of miles. Another fascinating fact is that they have specialized glands that help them excrete excess salt, allowing them to survive in saltwater environments. Despite their longevity, sea turtles face threats such as pollution, climate change, and habitat loss.
