A turtle’s shell is like a suit of armor, protecting it from predators. While sea turtles can’t draw their arms, legs and heads into their shells, their large size and tough neck skin provide extra protection. 

Also helpful: Humans who use our @seafoodwatch app to choose seafood that’s caught in ways that reduce harm to sea turtles!

On this 23rd day of Advent & Dressember, Susan once again is wearing a dress as she and her family enjoying a sunny day along the Santa Cruz Wharf (adjacent to Monterey Bay Sanctuary). Choosing to purchase ethically caught seafood 🦞 is a way of doing good. This past June, National Geographic published an article stating “To help prevent consumers from financing slave labor aboard fishing ships, the Monterey Bay Aquarium added a Seafood Slavery Risk Tool to its Seafood Watch program. Earlier iterations of the program helped consumers avoid fish that came from unsustainable fisheries.” #endslavery #dressember #seafoodwatch #montereybay #dogoodfeelgoodlookgood #dogoodfeelgood #montereybayaquarium #seafoodslaveryrisk (at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6bnKY2Aunx/?igshid=1s27edv4tapkd

Very interesting... #Repost @oneoceandiving (@get_repost) ・・・ Sharks help us breathe. While rain forests are responsible for about 1/3 (28%) of the oxygen that we breathe, most of the Earth’s oxygen (70%) is produced by marine plants.  Phytoplankton (microscopic marine plants that are so abundant they can be seem from space!) produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. These algae form the base of the food chain for all of life in the ocean, which could make it the most important organism on earth. Polluted, warming waters (caused by runoff from land and C02 emissions) decrease phytoplankton production. However, historical overfishing causes far greater ecological consequences than any other human disturbance (Jackson et al. 2001). Meaning, the removal of top predators (such as sharks) can cause a phase-shift in the ocean’s ecosystem resulting in the disappearance of entire trophic levels (like the oxygen-producing phytoplankton). But hey, who needs to breathe anyway? #kindofabigdeal #itsallconnected #justbreathe #seafoodwatch #planetearth #oceanproduction #carboncycle #apexpredators #trophiclevels #bottomofthefoodchain #underappreciated #phytoplankton #algaearecool #savethereef #saveourseas #saveoursharks #oceanconservation #marinebiology ************************************** Post by intern @brittanyrvzoo Photo of phytoplankton bloom by @nasa https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw6Mj-2F8O4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bde1uhit9zzg

#Overfishing has become a major concern in recent decades with some organizations like @Oceana estimating that 80% of the world’s oceans are over-exploited. Fisheries can cause depletion of target and non-target species which lead to detrimental effects in marine populations and communities (Coll 2008). The good news is that eating seafood can be sustainable and you can use the power of your phone to help you figure out which types of seafood are ok to purchase or order when you’re dining out. The Monterey Bay Aquarium created the Seafood Watch app @seafoodwatch. The FREE app has a feature called Project FishMap which uses your phone GPS to load a regional guide to show restaurants serving sustainable seafood in your area! It ranks fish as: “best choice” (green), “good alternative” (yellow) or “avoid” (red). Next time you are about to have fish for a meal make sure to think twice and check to see if it is sustainable!    #sustainablefishing #eatsustainable #Seafoodwatch   Post by @teeny-travels Photo by @cressi1946 #GalapagosEvolution team or @juansharks featuring freediver @oceanramsey (at Galapagos Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwYARiDhl0v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=188sufepjacp2
