The slide "Different Turtle Species" highlights five turtles with key traits: ocean-dwelling herbivore Green Sea Turtle, carnivorous migratory Loggerhead, terrestrial omnivore Box Turtle, largest jellyfish-eating Leatherback, and coral reef specialist Hawksbill. It uses bullets to concisely describe their habitats and diets.

Different Turtle Species

• Green Sea Turtle: ocean dweller, herbivore
• Loggerhead Sea Turtle: carnivorous, migratory
• Box Turtle: terrestrial, omnivore
• Leatherback: largest, jellyfish eater
• Hawksbill: coral reef specialist

Sea turtles thrive in marine habitats like oceans and coral reefs, where they swim, feed on jellyfish and seagrass, and nest on beaches. Box and snapping turtles adapt to diverse freshwater and terrestrial environments worldwide, from rivers and ponds to forests and deserts.

Turtle Habitats

Green turtles are herbivores that eat sea grass and algae, leatherbacks are carnivores consuming jellyfish and crabs, and box turtles are omnivores feasting on fruits, insects, and veggies. Turtle diets vary by species and habitat.

Turtle Diet

• Green turtles: herbivores eating sea grass and algae.
• Leatherbacks: carnivores consuming jellyfish and crabs.
• Box turtles: omnivores feasting on fruits, insects, veggies.
• Diets vary by species and habitat.

The "Turtle Anatomy" slide illustrates key features including the hard shell with a carapace protecting the back and plastron shielding the belly. It also highlights flippers for swimming in sea turtles versus legs for land species, plus a beak-like toothless mouth and long retractable neck for feeding.

The Turtle Life Cycle timeline begins with females laying 50-200 eggs in beach nests on Day 0, followed by hatchlings emerging after 45-70 days to race to the sea and juveniles growing rapidly in the open ocean over 1-20 years. Mature adults then return to natal beaches after 20+ years to mate and reproduce, living 50-100+ years.

Turtle Life Cycle

Day 0: Eggs Laid in Nests Female turtles bury 50-200 eggs in sandy beach nests for incubation. 45-70 Days: Hatchlings Race to Sea Babies emerge at night, instinctively scrambling to ocean waves for survival. 1-20 Years: Juvenile Rapid Growth Young turtles feed voraciously in open ocean, growing quickly toward maturity. 20+ Years: Adults Mate and Reproduce Mature turtles return to natal beaches to breed, living 50-100+ years.

All seven sea turtle species are endangered or threatened. Additionally, 52% ingest plastic, over 100,000 die annually from fishing bycatch, and only 1 in 1,000 hatchlings reach adulthood.

This feature_grid slide, titled "Fun Facts About Turtles," presents five intriguing facts with icons and brief descriptions. It covers turtles' 250-million-year history predating dinosaurs, cloacal underwater breathing, epic migrations, painless shells lacking nerve endings, and lifespans over 100 years.
