Sea Turtles
Prohibited in: Worldwide (CITES)
Justification: Endangered species
The hunting, sale, and consumption of sea turtles are banned under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in many countries around the world. Once a delicacy in parts of Asia and the Caribbean, sea turtles are now protected due to their endangered status. Conservation efforts aim to prevent their extinction and preserve marine ecosystems.
