Over the past two decades, a silent invasion has been occurring beneath the waves of our oceans. Jellyfish, those gelatinous creatures of the deep, have been multiplying at an alarming rate, threatening to reshape the marine ecosystem. If left unchecked, we might find ourselves in a future where the ocean is dominated by these drifting creatures. However, a potential savior emerges from the depths: the leatherback sea turtle.

As featured in this captivating animated video from Ted-Ed, leatherback turtles have evolved as nature’s countermeasure to the jellyfish onslaught. Unfortunately, these wonderful animals are currently endangered. In a world where human activity is often disrupting natural balances, the leatherback sea turtle reminds us of the importance of protecting and understanding the intricacies of our planet’s delicate ecosystems.
