Today is #WorldSeaTurtleDay!

Modern sea turtles have been around for over 80 million years. They have lived since the time of the dinosaurs. They have lived all that time & only now are they threatened. The biggest threat to them is humans. Now, only 1 in 1000 hatchlings makes it to adulthood.

In honor of World Sea Turtle Day!! This can also double as a tribute to Andy Warhol. 🤣

Snorkeled with these Green Sea Turtles off the coast of Maui. One of the most peaceful things I've ever done. 🤙💚💙

Thank you to Captain Ghanem for freeing this sea turtle from entanglement in a ghost net. This turtle could’ve easily been another silent loss from the destructive fishing industry. 🐢
