Humans also impact the small sea turtles from getting to the ocean after hatching. Other animals, children, and careless adults can make it impossible for these small critters to survive. Pollution has also affected these turtles habitats by causing them to become ill or get caught in humans debris (such as plastic).]]> 2019-07-23 22:30:42 UTC https://padlet.com/1554955/y7sgit4pw8om/wish/372079001 HOW ARE WE HELPING THIS SPECIES? 1554955 https://padlet.com/1554955/y7sgit4pw8om/wish/372079242 There are many organizations in North Carolina that base around the idea to protect all marine life. Some specifically work with sea turtles to ensure they are safe and able to survive. Many of these organizations monitor a sea turtles nest and make sure they are safe from animals, humans, and harmful weather. When the eggs hatch, they make it easy for the turtles to get into the ocean where they belong.]]> 2019-07-23 22:34:47 UTC https://padlet.com/1554955/y7sgit4pw8om/wish/372079242 SOURCES 1554955 https://padlet.com/1554955/y7sgit4pw8om/wish/372079382 https://www.ncwildlife.org/Conserving/Species#55282076-reptiles
