  1. dermochelys coriacea

    Dermochelys coriacea, commonly known as the leatherback sea turtle, is the largest of all living sea turtles and the fourth largest modern reptile behind three crocodilians. Instead of a hard shell, it is characterized by its leathery skin and flexible carapace. This species is found in different oceans across the world and feeds primarily on jellyfish. It is known for enduring the coldest water temperatures and for its longest migration distances among all sea turtles. It is currently listed as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to threats like egg harvesting, marine pollution, and bycatch in fishing gear.
