This is what MARINE TRASH does to TURTLES… and no one stops it 🐢
While you're watching this, somewhere in the ocean,
a creature is fighting for its life.
Not against a predator, or for lack of food,
but for something much more absurd.
A large amount of plastic waste of all kinds.
Human waste, turned into sewers of the ocean.
Here is a clear example.
A sea turtle trapped between the green threads of a ghost network.
It doesn't move. It's resigned.
A group of people tries to rescue it,
cutting the nets that keep it captive.
But there's something else. Something strange.
Its body has white spots.
It's not albinism. It's not paint.
It's not vitiligo either.
It's a rare condition, called piebaldism.
A genetic mutation,
where certain pigmentary cells don't migrate correctly to certain parts of the body,
causing pigmented spots.
It doesn't hurt, but it makes it unique and more striking for its predators.
The rescue continues.
It's calm.
It seems to understand that these human hands, this time, don't come to harm.
Meanwhile, at another point in the ocean,
two fishermen lean over their boat.
A thick net wraps around another sea turtle.
Its fins are not free.
Its body is trapped in nets, but the men act carefully,
with a knife in their hands, but without violence.
The cuts are precise.
Only in 2024, it was estimated that more than 12 million tons of garbage entered the sea.
Many of them, ghost nets.
In the ropes, you can see percebes stuck,
a sign that this net has been floating for months, maybe years, drifting.
The release continues.
On the shore, the sand has another story.
The neck of this turtle is caught by the threads of a rib,
as if it had been tied.
The rescuer appears and, with delicacy, manages to free its fin.
But the neck…
the neck is very tangled.
Each thread strangles it hard,
as if the plastic had clung to take its life.
We return to the first rescue.
The people don't stop.
After a minute of cutting the nets, almost all the body is free.
Another person joins in.
The fins are still trapped.
Look, she's feeding there!
Sea turtles easily confuse bags and nets with jellyfish,
their usual food.
52% of turtles studied in certain seas have plastic in their stomachs.
She's going to lose this hand.
Finally, the net gives in.
She's still moving, alhamdulillah.
The white in some parts of its body stands out under the sun,
as if it were a work of marine art,
marked by genetics, but almost erased by our garbage.
Even the different, the rare, the abnormal also deserves to be saved.
The turtle is completely free.
We return to the boat.
Unfortunately, the net remains firm in the turtle's rear fins.
But the fisherman has a plan.
He won't cut in that area, it could hurt him.
So, he decides to let go, knot by knot,
with the patience of one who understands that life is not violent.
The ghost-fishing nets kill in silence.
They are invisible traps that continue to hunt uncontrollably.
The abandoned commercial nets are responsible for up to 20%
of the deaths of some species of sea turtles in protected areas.
But, something happens.
The turtle is free, but it remains still.
Its body does not know it yet.
A few seconds pass, and it throws itself into the sea.
It has been born again.
Meanwhile, on the beach, the rescue takes another form.
The man turns the threads.
One, two, ten turns, and continues,
until, little by little, the neck begins to free itself.
There is no hurry, only determination.
The soft plastic and the residues, such as ribs or ribs,
cause strangulations, amputations, and slow death.
This garbage can take between 100 and 500 years to degrade.
And then, the turtle moves its head again.
Finally, it breathes without fear.
Its neck looks good.
Its fins are intact.
The sea receives it like a daughter who returns.
These cases are a minimal sample of the problems caused by marine garbage.
Every bag you throw,
every net you lose,
every plastic we forget,
can become a trap.
It is not about saving the world.
It is about not continuing to destroy it.
