The flat backed turtle is a species of sea turtle unique to Australia. Among sea turtles, only the hatchlings of flat backed turtles live in coastal waters and do not swim into the ocean, which is why they are unique to Australia. The flat backed turtle shell can grow up to 1 meter long and weigh up to 80 kilograms. The back shell is flat and circular, with a gray olive color and a brownish yellow edge. The edge shield has a thin layer of wax. Flat backed turtles are omnivorous turtles with a preference for meat, mainly feeding on mollusks. The flatback turtle is a CITES Class I protected animal under the Washington Convention.
