Sea Turtles get their name for one obvious reason: They live in the ocean. They're present in all of them except the Arctic Ocean, because they prefer warm water. They come in all sizes and shell shapes, depending on species, which number seven. Sea Turtles cannot withdraw into their shells like other turtles, not only can they maneuver very well on land, but they sure can move in water. The fastest species is the Leatherback, known to travel more than 20 mph. If you ever get the chance to see a Sea Turtle that looks like it's crying, don't be fooled. That's how they purge the extra salt they take on in the ocean.
