We'll cover all you need to know about keeping these intriguing animals as pets in this extensive guide. 1. Comprehending Leatherback Turtles The largest sea turtles, known as Leatherbacks (Dermochelys coriacea), are distinguished by having leathery shells rather than hard, bony plates.

Legal Aspects to Take into Account It's important to become aware of the laws governing the ownership of leatherback turtles before you take on the adventure of being their owner.
