Two species of sea turtle breed in Lebanon and swim off the coast:  the Green Turtle
 (Chelonia mydas) and the Loggerhead Turtle  (Caretta caretta) are both listed on the international (IUCN) red list as:  "Endangered".  They breed in protected areas of the Lebanese coast line, at the Tyre Coast Nature Reserve and  Palm Islands Nature Reserve.  Even with conservation efforts, they still face the threats of dynamite fishing, ensnarement in nets, loss of breeding habitat and death from pollution. Many turtles die each year by eating plastic bags that look like their jelly fish prey.
