Named for its narrow head and sharp, bird-like beak, the hawksbill #seaturtle can reach into cracks and crevices of #coralreefs looking for food. Their diet is very specialized, feeding almost exclusively on sponges. bit.ly/3qftfiX 📸 Milos Prelevic #DYK

The adult green #seaturtle is an herbivore, dining on sea grasses, seaweeds, algae and other marine plant life. Their beak is sharp and finely serrated, perfectly adapted for grazing in #seagrass beds and scraping algae off hard surfaces bit.ly/3vVfGrr 📸Hitoshi Namura
