Acrostic poem

Sea Turtles are endangered.

Eggs look like ping-pong balls.

Artificial lighting confuse the hatchlings

Turtles are green.

Under the sea they go fast.

Reptiles are cold blooded.

Turtles have no teeth.

Leatherbacks are use for boots.

Each egg is buried in the sand.

Sea turtles have a hard shell.
