Caught in a Tangled Tale - The Misadventures of a Green Turtle
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo, we witness the unfortunate predicament of a majestic Green Turtle trapped in a fishing net. As it struggles to break free, its eyes reveal both fear and determination. This powerful image was captured by Claudio Contreras, who skillfully portrays the harsh reality faced by marine creatures. The Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California) serves as the backdrop for this heart-wrenching scene. Mexico's National Biodiversity Commission recognized Contreras' talent by awarding him third place in their prestigious photography contest, "Visions of our nature". It is an eye-opening reminder that even amidst breathtaking beauty, environmental issues persist. The vibrant hues of the turtle's shell contrast starkly with the man-made material entangling it – plastic fishing nets discarded thoughtlessly into our oceans. This photograph serves as a poignant call-to-action against littering and highlights the grave consequences these actions have on endangered species like sea turtles. As we gaze upon this extraordinary snapshot, let us reflect on our role in protecting our fragile ecosystems. Together, we can strive towards cleaner oceans and create safer havens for all marine life to thrive undisturbed. So next time you encounter waste or debris polluting our waters, remember this mesmerizing image and be inspired to make a difference!
