Fun Fact
Sea turtles have a surprising characteristic: they appear to cry when they come ashore to lay their eggs. However, this intriguing behavior is not a display of emotion but a vital adaptive mechanism. Indeed, these tears allow sea turtles to expel the excess salt absorbed by drinking seawater. This process, essential for their survival, helps them maintain a balance of mineral salts in their body, thus demonstrating the incredible adaptation of these animals to their marine environment.
Did You Know?
Did you know that sea turtles have developed an impressive ability to hold their breath underwater? Young turtles can stay submerged for several minutes, while adults, much more enduring, are capable of holding their breath for hours. This exceptional skill is vital, allowing them to feed and move underwater while avoiding predators. Despite this, they must regularly resurface to breathe, a fascinating reminder of their dependence on air, even in their aquatic environment.
