Sea Turtle week. Day #5

Today’s Spotlight: The Loggerhead Turtle!

Did you know these gentle giants roam our waters? Loggerheads are easily identified by their massive heads and the five distinct lateral bony plates on their shells.

While they are considered rare visitors to Trinidad and Tobago, we have had several exciting confirmed sightings over the last 12 years ranging from our east and south coasts to the waters of Chaguaramas and around Tobago!

A Success Story: In 2017, a stranded loggerhead was rescued and rehabilitated on the east coast of Trinidad. After being fitted with a satellite tag, it was released back into the wild. The data was fascinating the turtle spent time exploring the Gulf of Paria before moving on!

Today, we highlight the Olive Ridley sea turtle, the second smallest of the world’s seven sea turtle species. While Olive Ridleys are seldom seen in T&T, they are known for their spectacular synchronised mass-nestings, called “arribadas”. Olive ridleys are known for their heart-shaped, olive-green to grayish shell, and can reach a weight of up to 45 kg.

T&T successfully rehabilitated and released a distressed Olive Ridley sea turtle in 2024.

Turtles and their eggs are often targeted by poachers around the world for their meat as well as for harvesting their carapaces (shells).

However, in T&T, The Protection of Turtle and Turtle Eggs explicitly prohibit the killing, harpooning, or possession of turtles, as well as the collection or sale of their eggs. Offenders face substantial fines for each offense of poaching, trafficking, or consumption.
