Il lato oscuro delle tartarughe marine

Welcome to CUDDLY but LETHAL - ep. 3 Today we'll talk about beautiful sea turtles! Behind their harmless appearance, they hide killer anatomical and behavioral characteristics! Mollusks, algae, jellyfish, sponges, and crabs have short lives when sea turtles are around. Not to mention the leatherback turtle! Beautiful yet disturbing. The only one that doesn't appear cute but is immediately lethal. What surprised you most about this video? If you'd like to ask about it, feel free to comment!
