EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Hunting Green Turtles," transports us back in time to the late 1800s, specifically circa 1860, when the world was a different place. The image, obtained from Mary Evans Picture Library at Mary Evans Prints Online, depicts a group of hunters gathered around a large, green turtle, their determined expressions etched on their faces. Green turtles, with their distinctive olive-green color and heart-shaped carapaces, were once hunted extensively for their meat, which was considered a delicacy in Europe and the Americas. The hunters in this photograph appear to be in the Caribbean or the Atlantic Ocean, regions known for their abundant green turtle populations. The photograph offers a glimpse into the history of turtle hunting, an industry that flourished during the 19th century. Turtle hunting was a labor-intensive and dangerous endeavor, requiring hunters to dive deep into the ocean to capture the reptiles. The hunters would often use hooks, harpoons, or even their bare hands to catch the turtles, which could weigh up to 600 pounds. Despite the risks, turtle hunting was a lucrative business, with demand for green turtle meat and oil driving the industry. However, overexploitation led to a significant decline in green turtle populations, and hunting was eventually banned in many parts of the world. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history of turtle hunting and the importance of conservation efforts to protect endangered species like the green turtle. It also offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the determination and skill of the hunters who once pursued these magnificent creatures.
