How to tell the difference between turtle species
South Africa's ocean is home to five species of sea turtle - some of which are temporarily housed at the Two Oceans Aquarium in our I&J Ocean Exhibit while undergoing rehabilitation with our Foundation’s Turtle Conservation Centre. Here, the turtles have time to get stronger and be observed by our Turtle Team before they are released into the ocean.
Aquarium visitors may notice that the turtles in the I&J Ocean Exhibit are rather diverse in appearance. But have you ever wondered how to tell them apart?
