Turtles eat jellyfish. Do sea turtles really get high on seaweed? No, ilgdo. Maybe allas don't get high on eucalyptus either. Lindsey fresmith and jen woo both want to know, what can humans do to save endanger sea turtale species? What can the humans do? We just love turtles.
Hope you dug tortoises because we’re back, shellin’ out the good stuff, with this week’s encore of sea turtles, so get ready to become wildly obsessed with them. Cheloniologist Dr. Camryn Allen met up with Alie on a tropical island (ok, in a hotel room on a tropical island) to chat about flipper slappings, turtle rodeos, nesting BBs, current surfing, endangered statuses, field work, sleeping under water, world records, boopable noses, male:female ratios, mind-boggling navigation, what you can do to help them, and the many mysteries that still remain. Take a deep dive into the world of seartles. Or is it surtles?
