💬: @seaturtleweek Did you know that the leatherback sea turtle is the largest of all sea turtles, and one of the largest reptiles on earth? It ranges in size from 4-8 feet in length (1.2 - 2.4 meters) and weighs a whopping 500-2,000 pounds (225 - 900 kg). They are the oldest of all sea turtle species and have been around for more than 150 million years! They survived the extinction of the dinosaurs and thrived until the last several decades when human interactions have taken a major toll. 📹: @
