Leatherback Sea Turtle

The Leatherback Sea Turtle is the closest living relative to the dinosaur and the third heaviest reptile in the world (after two species of crocodile). They grow up to 7 feet long and can weigh 2,000 pounds, that's almost a tonne and they eat jelly fish! The population has declined by 40% since 1980 and there are just 25,000 nesting females left today after being on the planet for over 100 million years outliving every other species. Plastic bags, which they mistake for jellyfish, looks to be their nemesis. Our tempered glass tortoiseshell bracelet seeks to capture some of their magnificence in the colours especially as it captures the light. Leatherbacks, like other sea turtles, are greatly dependent on the Great Barrier Reef.

Sea Turtles

Sea turtles can't retract their heads and legs into their bodies, so their shells aren't really homes as such, more like a shield. And its this armour that's helped them to become one of the oldest living species on the planet today - turtles were trawling the world's oceans over 100 million years ago when T-Rex was hunting dinosaurs on land. Sadly their shield is no match for the threats humanity as introduced into the oceans including plastic bags which they eat mistaking them for jelly fish (their favourite food); discarded fishing nets, which they get caught up in and drown and, of course, they are hunted for meat. But it's Global Warming that will likely determine their destiny. In the oceans, warmer waters are bleaching the reefs destroying the turtles' natural habitats, and on land, the hotter sands in which turtles lay their eggs are producing more male than female turtles. The heat of the sand in which the eggs gestate determines the sex of the hatchlings and, the warmer it gets, the fewer females and the fewer eggs in future. People, the seas and the lands all seem totally aligned against these gorgeous little creatures who've been around forever.

Sharks and Shark Bay

Located 1,000 kilometres north of Perth on the western most tip of Australia, Shark Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to 29 species of sharks including Tiger Sharks and Hammerheads, making it one of the most shark infested waters in the world. It is also a nesting home to Loggerhead and Green Sea Turtles, as well as 150 species of reptiles, 230 species of birds and 320 species of fish. Migrating whales stop by and whale sharks come to celebrate the full moons in April and May. Its waters are twice as salty as the surrounding seas and with almost 5,000 square kilometres of sea grass, and the largest single stretch of sea grass on the planet measuring over 1,000 square kilometres. Shark Bay has a higher level of evaporation than annual rainfall, creating a marine paradise dependent on its unusual climatic conditions. Conditions which are threatened by Climate Change, which your trees seek to combat by absorbing 220 Kgs of CO2 from the air every year.
