4Ocean Leatherback Sea Turtle Braided Bracelet

Leatherback sea turtles are the oldest turtles in the world and can be traced back to a time when dinosaurs still roamed the earth. They managed to survive what the dinosaurs couldn't - but sadly now, they are facing extinction due to human activity.

Leatherback sea turtles feed primarily on jellyfish and their mouths and throats are lined with hundreds of long, down-ward facing spines to prevent the jellies from slipping out of their mouths. In dark and murky waters, plastic bags, wrappers, balloons, and other plastic debris can look a lot like jellyfish. However, the leatherback sea turtle cannot digest the plastic, leaving it stuck in their gastrointestinal tract, leading to chronic illness, infections, and sometimes death. 

When you purchase our Leatherback Sea Turtle Braided Bracelet, you’ll pull a pound of waste from the ocean, rivers, and coastlines while raising awareness about the steps we can take to protect these ancient creatures for generations to come.

Available in two sizes:

Small, to fit wrist size 14.61cm-17.15cm
