About The Hawksbill

There is a wide variety of animals that live in the ocean but one awesome sea turtle that does is the hawksbill sea turtle, named after their narrow pointed beak. Did you know they are critically endangered? What does that mean… It means that there are a small number of them left in the wild. Why are they critically endangered, well hawksbill turtles have colored and patterned shells, and people like them so much they will make jewelry out of the shells killing the turtles. Luckily according to https://oceana.org, “Hawksbill turtles can be found in the coastal waters of more than 108 countries.” They live in so many places so if they die out in one place hopefully they are still there in another.
