Hawksbill sea turtle

Eretmochelys imbricata
Ka lebitso: Its common name comes from its beak-like mouth, which is more sharply hooked than in other sea turtles. Its scientific name, Eretmochelys, comes from Ancient Greek words meaning 'oar' and 'turtle', for its oar-like front flippers.1

The hawksbill sea turtle is a sea turtle with a sharp, hooked beak and a shell with a saw-edged rear. It lives mainly in warm tropical reefs in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans. It is critically endangered, and its flesh can become toxic to eat.1

E kotsi hakae ho batho?

Kotsi ho batho: E kotsi haholoE ka bolaya motho ya sa fumaneng kalafo.

The main risk to people is from eating its flesh, which can become toxic after the turtle eats venomous cnidarians (jellyfish-like animals). The sources give no figures for illness or deaths.1

E etsang ha e tshohile?

It uses its strong shell to squeeze into tight spaces in reefs, and it may seek places where it can camouflage or hide from predators.1

Dintlha

1

It is biofluorescent and is the first reptile recorded with this trait, meaning it glows under certain light.1

2

Some sponges it eats are highly toxic to other animals, and it can eat them without harm.1

3

It closes its unprotected eyes when feeding on stinging animals, and the Portuguese man o' war's stinging cells cannot pierce its armoured head.1

4

Sponges make up most of its food, which makes it the only primarily sponge-eating reptile among sea turtles.1

5

Its shell was the main source of tortoiseshell used for decorative items.1

6

In the eastern Pacific, it nests and feeds mainly in mangrove estuaries rather than on reefs.1
