Conversation: Endangered Turtles
It's estimated that only around 1 in 1,000 marine turtle hatchlings make it to adulthood.
There are seven species – hawksbill, leatherback, loggerhead, flatback, olive ridley, Kemp's ridley and green turtle - and at least six of the seven species are at risk of extinction.
80% decline in Hawksbill turtles over 3 generations.
Over the last three decades, the word has lost half of its reefs.
