I don’t wish anyone dead, really. But good, in a way. Leave the fucking turtles alone, we already make it hard enough for them. There’s zero reason to kill and eat a bunch.
There are three species of sea turtles that can cause this type of a death (chelonitoxism) - two of them are Vulnerable, one of them is Endangered.
