Green Turtles

Green turtles are listed as, endangered
and are mainly found, in tropical and sub-tropical sea oceans
they are one of the largest sea turtles, to have ever embraced our oceans
 and are the only Sea Turtle herbivore, and a great sea ocean mentor

Green turtles graze on seagrasses, that helps maintain beds of seagrass
and when they have digested, going to the dunny release’s vital nutrients 
for many species of plants and animals, as they thrive with stimulants
and seagrass beds are nurseries, for species to amass their social class

Sea turtles need beaches for nesting, but humans are encroaching
and they harvest their eggs, and hunt the adults for greedy investing
Coastal development, vehicle beach traffic, and other human activities 
are destroying sea turtle nesting, and climate change is male declining
