Recently I've been writing a lot about Sea Turtles and what they do for our Oceans. I touched based on what professionals and researchers think but i haven't mentioned my opinion. Many people don't understand why we try so hard to conserve our oceans and protect the sea turtles. Not only do Turtles maintain a balance in the oceans. They also are important economically. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is trying to raise awareness by promoting ecotourism at marine turtle sites. This way tourist see how easily endangered the species is and they will help protect them. I think that if people are are aware of how important these creatures are to our ecosystem, then they would be more cautious. Since sea turtles are so under the radar, it is in the hands of aquariums and tourist attractions to educate their importance.
