5. Why is the Sea Turtle endangered Loggerheads often get hit by boats Sea turtles cant go in their shell so bigger predators often eat them because they cant hide and all their limbs are exposed When they hatch birds/other predators feed on them before they get to the ocean. Not many turtles make it to be an adult Longline hooks and in fishing gillnets
