What do you think this is. Well I doubt you know. This is the throat of a leather back sea turtle. The throat of this sea turtle looks like this because it helps them eat jellyfish without being stung. It also makes the jellyfish stay in its throat and lets sea water out. The throat also causes plastic bags to be stuck and suffocate the turtle. This is one of the many reasons why the trash in our oceans are very dangerous.
