🐢Daily Sea Turtle Fact:🐢

Loggerhead Sea Turtle: The loggerhead turtle is named for its large head. Loggerheads are carnivores, only occasionally consuming plant material. They have powerful jaw muscles, designed to crush their prey, that enable them to feed on mostly bottom dwelling invertebrates such as whelks, conchs, other mollusks, horseshoe crabs, and other crabs.

Loggerhead sea turtles (like this one, on a Florida beach) use Earth’s magnetic field to navigate back to the beach where they were born.

Sea turtles use magnetic ‘map’ and ‘compass’ to navigate the ocean

Loggerhead sea turtles can learn to recognize foraging areas using natural magnetic signatures.

"Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) can learn to associate food with the geomagnetic signatures of various oceanic regions, suggesting that they are able to find known foraging areas using an internal magnetic ‘map’. This map and an internal magnetic ‘compass’ rely on distinct mechanisms, implying that turtles have two magnetic senses."
