Green sea turtles went from "Endangered" to "Least Concern." They're surging—some places even have too many.

An endangered #greenseaturtle off Channel Island which is about 30 minutes drive out of Darwin. The Northern Territory government is encouraging the Middle Arm Precinct industrial area which will have gas and fracking related industries in this part of the harbour.

Did you know that green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) aren't named for the colour of their shell? Their fat is a greenish colour due to their herbivorous diet of seagrasses and algae.
