Cape Verde 1-ESCUDO (KM27)

Loggerhead Sea Turtle

The Loggerhead sea turtle is named for its very large head. Loggerheads live in tropical waters all over the world. They nest every 2-3 years, and unlike other sea turtles who like to do it on the beach, the loggerheads date & mate while riding the ocean currents.
