The Quiz: What type of sea turtle has the largest geographic range?
Leatherback
Hawksbill
Kemp’s ridley
Loggerhead
Leatherback sea turtles have the widest geographical range not just of any turtle, but of any marine reptile. The massive leatherback can grow to be six feet long, and it has a unique rubbery shell. Leatherbacks prefer to eat jellyfish, so they have adapted for deep diving (more than 3,000 feet), and can navigate cold water better than other cold-blooded reptiles.
The correct answer to this quiz is Leatherback.
