Шкірясті черепахи пірнають глибше 1000 метрів
Leatherback turtles are known to pursue prey deeper than 1000 m-beyond the physiological limits of all other diving tetrapods except for beaked whales and sperm whales.
The leatherback has several characteristics that distinguish it from other sea turtles. Its most notable feature is the lack of a bony carapace. Instead of scutes, it has thick, leathery skin.
