[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Once in a lifetime i would like to see this marvellous Sea Turtle (Caretta caretta)swimming alive in the sea and not dead on the beach like this one.

Many of this Caretta caretta die from the impact with the elics of boats.
They breed in the desolated beaches of mediterranean,like Lampedusa (for Italy).

Hello Giacomo

Oh...such a sad story! The poor little turtle!
Indeed it's very bad what happens nowadays with all the human impact of the wildlife. Unfortunately sometimes such adorable species like this one suffer...and this is the only thing we can do about it - show it to the world in hope someone important might see it and really do something.
Great work!

Cheers
Horia
