Hawksbill Turtle exploring the reef

Hawksbill Sea Turtle as it explores a coral reef looking for its favourite food of sea sponges. Hawksbill Sea Turtles are quite pernickety, feeding only on a few varieties of sea sponges. Many of the sponges they feed on are poisonous to other sea life, however Hawksbill Sea Turtles appear to be resistant to their toxins. In addition to sea sponges, they feed on algae, comb jellies, stinging jellyfish (protected by their armoured heads) and even sea anemones. This ability to feed on a variety of difficult sea life has helped them to survive despite threats to their continued survival being caused by human activities such as fishing, nest raiding and hunting for their beautiful shells.
