Info on Sea Turtles

Sea turtles are reptiles that live in a marine or brackish environment. The flippers of sea turtles are long and paddle-like, making them excellent for swimming but poor for walking on land.http://marinelife.about.com/od/marinelife101/p/seaturtles.htm
*****I found this information very applicable to our project. I never knew that turtles had a hard time walking, I thought they just had too big of a shell for their body. This information is allowing me to learn interesting new info.
Doing this project we have decided to focus on certain turtles and their characteristics. Comparing different species of turtles will allow us to see different characteristics of each.
