Short description
Green turtle (Chelonia mydas) on anchor 17 meters underwater. The color of the green turtle on top is not only olive green, but often dark brown, with yellowish and white spots and stripes. The common name refers to the usually green fat found under its shell, due to its diet strictly consisting of sea grass, rather than the color of its shell.
