Turtle Found Dead in the Sea off the Coast of Cyprus
A resident of Cyprus posted on social media about finding a dead turtle in the sea. For two consecutive years, she had encountered the turtle in the same spot, but this year she found it torn apart.
The posted images show a large turtle, which the author always recognized in the same place due to distinctive markings.
However, during her last dive in that specific spot, she found the turtle dead at the bottom of the sea, with clear signs of injuries likely caused by a motorboat propeller.
The woman expressed her devastation over this horrific sight.
