Green turtles in galapagos marine reserve get territorial over food and space

Green turtles in the Galápagos Marine Reserve enjoy the abundance of food and terrain they can forage in. But that doesn’t prevent them from being a bit territorial at times! When intruding on each other’s personal space, little scuffles often ensue. Although the turtles aren’t harmed during these interactions, it’s fascinating to watch these typically gentle critters show their more assertive side. Turtle power! 🐢💥🐢
