hawksbill see turtle critically endangered ocean GoPro animal water coral reef circle scuba dive
Hawksbill sea turtles are the most ornate and beautiful of the sea turtles. So beautiful that they have been hunted for their shells, they came perilously close to extinction in the past century.
Hawksbills feed on soft corals, sponges, and the algae that grows on them. They cruise over the reefs looking for places to feed. They are carnivores, unlike many other sea turtles.
These scuba divers were lucky enough to see two of these beautiful animals in one spot. The turtles slowly circle each other before one swims off in search of another area to graze.
Scuba divers are delighted to see one of these endangered species on a dive, and even more so when they see more than one.
