Recently, I went to Ghar Lapsi with my family and there we saw lots of jellyfish in the sea, trapped in plastic. This photo reminds me of sea turtles. The turtle’s favourite food is jellyfish, so where there are lots of jellyfish, turtles might be close by. Turtles mistake plastic for jellyfish and often, they will eat the plastic which gets stuck in their stomach and sadly, they usually die. Remember to clean up after yourself!
