There are seven different and gorgeous species of sea turtles that soar through the ocean's depths, and unfortunately, almost all of them are on the cusp of extinction. While there are a multitude of reasons behind their endangered status, one of the most painful to learn is the fact that so many of these beautiful animals are killed to be eaten.
Arron Culling lives and works in Papua New Guinea, and when he came across two squirming sea turtles at a local market, he looked into their desperate eyes and saw in them a plead for help. These two animals were doomed to be eaten or turned into soup, and Culling knew that he had to do the right thing.
Arron got his cash together, paid $50 for the pair of turtles, and drove a few miles to the ocean front. He set the turtles down on the beach and smiled as they crawled back to where they belong!

Arron respects and loves wildlife, so when he came across two sea turtles in need, he knew what he had to do.
He paid $50 for their lives, and they couldn't be more thankful. Many cultures from around the world choose to eat these beautiful animals rather than preserve and protect them.
The turtle saw the ocean straight ahead, and immediately crawled as fast as he could back to his home!
And the other turtle, while incredibly weakened from the harrowing ordeal, managed to go back to her home safe and sound. Arron has saved about 10 turtles so far, and they've all been thankful for him!
Hopefully, through education and the spreading of awareness, these animals will be able around for years to come!
