EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the moment of transformation and freedom for a sea turtle on the shores of Mayotte Island in the Indian Ocean. The green turtle, scientifically known as Chelonia mydas, is a rare and endangered species, and this image showcases the beauty and grace of these magnificent creatures as they return to their natural habitat. Mayotte Island, located in the Comoros archipelago, is a unique and beautiful destination, known for its crystal-clear waters and diverse marine life. The island's beaches provide a vital nesting ground for various species of sea turtles, including the green turtle, which is a crucial part of the island's ecosystem. Sea turtles play a vital role in maintaining the health of the world's oceans. They help to keep coral reefs healthy by feeding on seagrass and algae, and they also contribute to the nutrient cycle by transporting nutrients from the deep sea to the surface. This photograph, taken by renowned wildlife photographer M. Watson, is a testament to the importance of preserving these magnificent creatures and their habitats. It is a reminder of the beauty and wonder of the natural world and the importance of protecting it for future generations.
