Column addition 6: Tenacious Turtles

Further Challenges

• Visit the World Wildlife Fund’s About Marine Turtles web page. Create a fact file on marine turtles that is based on the number facts that appear on this page.
• Loggerhead, hawksbill leatherback, green and Kemp’s ridley turtles nest along the beaches of Cape Hatteras in North America. There are lots of interesting graphs about their nesting behaviour on the National Park Service website. Write down some questions for your talk partner that will require them to read and interpret the graphs on this page.
