    Kemp who made the first report of seeing the turtles. They mainly in the live in the Gulf of Mexico but some baby turtles are found near the Atlantic. Most female Kemp’s Ridley’s lay their eggs on the main nesting beach of Rancho Nuevo in Mexico. Where they dig a hole lay their eggs, cover them with sand and then leave them to hatch and get to the ocean alone. Parenting made easy, huh? The Ridley’s are cold blooded amphibians and have a lifespan up to 50 years but today only 1% of the Kemp’s Ridelys survive to reach sexual maturity. This is caused by three main factors, one is that since 1970 these turtles have been taken out of their habitat and brought to Mexico and South Texas to be sold for various recreational uses. As the population of the Ridley’s decreased so did the turtles availability on the market. The second reason is loss of habitat. Everywhere you look hotels and condos are going up along shorelines taking away the nesting ground of the Ridley’s. There is only one beach, located in Mexico, which is officially protected for the Kemp’s Ridley’s greatly reducing the chances of eggs surviving anywhere other than that beach. And the last and most horrible reason for these turtle’s death and endangerment is drowning in shrimp nets. Of the few turtles that survive being hatched and manage to get by predators, 1/3 of them drown in the shrimping nets they get caught in. Between 500 and 5,000 Kemp’s Ridley’s turtles are…

    Sea turtles have played critical roles in both ocean and beach/dune ecosystems for millennia. However, humans, both intentionally and unintentionally, have posed a major threat to the future sustainability of their species, especially in the last several decades.

("Lepidochelys Kempii (Atlantic Ridley, Gulf Ridley, Kemp's Ridley, Mexican Ridley)”). The worldwide female nesting population is estimated at roughly just 1,000 individual turtles, their survival truly hangs precariously in the balance.

    There are many endangered species in the world among these species is the Eretmochelys imbricata, commonly known as the Hawksbill Sea Turtle. The Hawksbill Sea Turtle has a lifespan of about 30 to 50 years. The turtle is an omnivore and consumes sea grasses, sea urchins, barnacles, small animals, and their favorite food, sponges (National Wildlife Federation). Regardless of their lifespan and diet, these turtles are dying quicker than normal because of the human race. According to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Hawksbill Sea Turtle is classified as critically endangered (Plos One). This means that the turtle has become especially susceptible to extinction worldwide. The Hawksbill Sea Turtle is found in the tropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Nevertheless, this sea turtle stays away from deep waters and would rather stay near the coastlines where sponges and nesting sites are close by (National Geographic). This way they are able to…

    Last two months Mr F brought me to a place which I really wanted to go. It was Aquaria located at Kuala Lumpur Conventional Centre. Mr F and I arrived there at 11.00pm and that day it was a public holiday, so there were many people like students, families with young and old, couples and some tourists. Before we entered, we purchased a ticket which cost Rm38 for adults and Rm28 for children. We were greeted by Piranhas just after the entrance. I was really excited because this was my first time to watch Piranhas. For me Piranha is not cute as others fish because of their looks, even though on the movies Piranha was very cruel, but in reality it is not like that. In Aquaria, there are several zone that located different species of animal. The first zone that we were passed away was the “Touch Pool” where we can touch some of the water reef creatures like king crab, Sea Star, sea cucumber, starfish and baby sharks. There is also an” Electric Zone” where there are several species of fish that can produce electric current. We then walked to “The Stream” to see a cute Giant Water Rats and the Asian Small-Clawed Otters. I am lucky because at that time I could see the Water Rat feeding time. The Water Rat was so huge and it was my first time to watch the huge rats about 6kg to 10kg closely. We then continued our journey to the “Jewels of The Jungle” zone, I am not a reptile fan. That why my hair at the back of my neck stand straight up when I saw the snakes. They have variety species of snakes. Besides the lizards and butterfly there are also unusual looking reptiles like the MataMata and the Alligator Snapping Turtle. There’s also the Yellow-banded Dart Frog, which was so tiny, but don’t kid around with this little frog because it is deadly. We then make our way to Level 2 where it has more fishes that called “Amazon Flooded Forest”. As we walked through Level 2, we went through “The Coast”. This zone looks like a beach and they got a variety…
