ORA Seaturtles December 2010

It is quite common to see some type of damage on Sea Turtles. Many have been attacked by an animal at some point in their life. Many others like this turtle have been affected by man. Scars from propellers are not uncommon. This poor guy lost an entire flipper to fishing line - image courtesy ORA, copyright 2010.
