We are at day 3 and my legs hurt! Today I wanted to raise awareness about sea turtles. Although there are about 6.5 million sea turtles left, 6 of the 7 species are at risk of extinction. The ever increasing amount of plastic waste ending up in the sea is killing more turtles. If they get caught up in fishing gear they can drown, they're poached for their meat and shells and nests are raided for eggs. One of the main threats marine turtles face is the destruction of their habitats. Development along coastlines is destroying nesting beaches, making it harder for female turtles to lay their eggs. Donate to the WWF now to support their work trying to put and end to all this.
