With its broad head and robust reddish-brown shell, the loggerhead sea turtle is one of the largest sea turtles. Found in many oceans, it can travel thousands of kilometers in its lifetime.
Surprisingly, the loggerhead sea turtle almost always returns to the beach where it was born to lay its eggs, sometimes after several decades of absence. Primarily carnivorous, it feeds on crabs, mollusks, and jellyfish, which it crushes with its powerful jaws. Threatened by plastic pollution and the destruction of its nesting areas, it is now a globally protected species.
This Papo figurine faithfully recreates the loggerhead sea turtle: detailed shell, powerful fins, and realistic silhouette. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories about the oceans, or educate children about the protection of endangered species.
