Facts of a Green Sea Turtle The green turtle is a large, weighty sea turtle with a wide, smooth carapace, or shell. It inhabits tropical and subtropical coastal waters around the world and has been observed clambering onto land to sunbathe. It is named not for the color of its shell, which is normally brown or olive depending on its habitat, but for the greenish color of its skin. http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/reptiles/green-turtle/

More info on Green Sea Turtles Weighing up to 700 pounds (317.5 kilograms) green turtles are among the largest sea turtles in the world. Unlike most sea turtles, adult green turtles are herbivorous, feeding on sea grasses and algae. Green turtles are listed as an endangered species, and a subpopulation in the Mediterranean is listed as critically endangered. Despite this, they are still killed for their meat and eggs. http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/reptiles/green-turtle/
