These marine turtles fulfill important roles in marine ecosystems. By snacking on seagrasses and algae, green turtles both help to maintain the seagrass beds and make them more productive.
Without grazing by green turtles, the seagrass blades grow tall and get choked by sediments that obscure the light and promote disease.
Additionally, seagrass consumed by green turtles is quickly digested and becomes available as recycled nutrients to the many species of plants and animals that live in the seagrass ecosystem. Seagrass beds also function as nurseries for several species of invertebrates and fish, many of which are of considerable value to commercial fisheries and therefore important to human food security.
