Which turtle travels furthest?
|
|
Most turtles travel long distances during their lives. The green turtle, however, probably holds the record. Individuals that feed off the coast of South America travel 2,200 kilometres to Ascension Island to breed. Turtles make these long-distance journeys because the number of beaches suitable for egg-laying is small.
