You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Sea turtles are known to have a life expectancy of up to a hundred years, which is longer than that of most other species of turtle. Because sea turtles have been hunted by humans all over the globe, many of them are now an 'endangered species'; a special breed of animal protected by law to live freely in the oceans.
*All of the sea turtles species are protected under Appendix I of the Convention on International trade In Endangered species (CITES).
**Appendix I species are the most stringently regulated
because their status is creeping close to extinction.
This appendix includes all species threatened
with extinction (e.g., some cacti, some orchids,
African gorillas, and parrots) that may or may not be
affected by trade. Permits for the export of these
species cannot be issued except under special circumstances,
and none of these species can be used
for commercial purposes.
