All around the world, there are many endangered animals, largely because of human progress As

the world's population grows, humans move into new areas, create more pollution, and use morenatural resources This all puts pressure on animals, which cannot really compete with humans Anexcellent example of this would be the case of the leatherback sea turtle

At 6.5 meters long, and up to 600 kilograms, the leatherback is the largest turtle on Earth It is alsoone of the most endangered Scientists do not know the exact number of leatherbacks because theyspend their entire lives at sea This makes them very difficult to count But female leatherbacks come

on land to lay their eggs From the number of nests that scientists find, they can estimate the number ofturtles The numbers do not show a good future for the leatherback At one beach, scientists countedover 10,000 egg nests in 1954 In 1993, there were only 50 nests at the same beach Scientists thinkthat the leatherback population is perhaps only 1% of what it was just 50 years ago Humandevelopment over the last 50 years is undoubtedly the reason for this

Humans affect leatherbacks in many ways Many of the beaches leatherbacks used to lay their eggs

at are now covered with hotels and resorts, so there are few places for the turtles to make their nests Inaddition, in many parts of the world, people eat the turtle eggs At one beach in Mexico, almost 100%

of all the leatherback nests were dug up and the eggs eaten by humans The turtles also get caught in

fishing nets and die In the 1950s, there were 5,000 fishing boats in the Gulf of Mexico, a common

spot for leatherbacks Now there are over 55,000 fishing boats in the same area If the situation doesnot change soon, the leatherback may disappear forever
