Sea Tortoise 20" L

5073, SEA TORTOISE 20''L are anatomically scaled to create the best reproduction of the life size stuffed animal and the most realistic stuffed animal in the industry.

The great migratory sea turtle roams the world’s open oceans, supremely well-adapted for an aquatic lifestyle.

From the first moment it hatches, the life of the sea turtle is a constant struggle for survival. Even if it survives the formidable odds on its journey to the sea, it must then navigate a treacherous world of predators, pollution, and human activity. Despite conservationists’ efforts to bolster numbers, the sea turtle is in danger. It will require a worldwide international conservation effort to save this creature.

• Sea turtles lack the ability to withdraw inside of their shells when they are threatened.
• To navigate the world’s oceans, sea turtles possess the ability to sense the planet’s magnetic field.
• Sea turtles first evolved in the Late Jurassic Period some 150 million years ago, but the evidence suggests that modern sea turtles have descended from a more recent lineage, probably dating back around 110 million years. Leatherback turtles lived at the same time as the dinosaurs and have changed only modestly since then.
• One of the more amazing facts is that the leatherback sea turtle can dive up to a depth of 4,000 feet. This is deeper than any other mammal or reptile in the world.
• Sea turtles can reach incredible sizes. The largest sea turtle ever recorded was a loggerhead that weighed 2,019 pounds! Prehistoric sea turtles were even larger, with the ancient genus Archelon reaching 4,900 pounds.
