Caroline80 discovered 4 months ago- Poor old creature. Click the link for the story, she is believed to have swallowed a plastic bag and died shortly after this photo was taken. PS just updating, since I put this photo out on stumbleupon, it has spread all over, like an unpleasant rash.. I'm so pleased! Jabiru does not have plastic bags available anywhere, only paper ones which you have to buy for 15 cents each. I think it's bloody brilliant, I just use the green bags usually.

- The adult female _ believed to be about 40 years old _ was spotted in distress floating about 200m offshore in Fannie Bay. It is believed she had swallowed a plastic bag. Rescuers battled rough seas to pluck the turtle from the water but the gentle giant died on its way to the Ark Animal Hospital. Ark vet Stephen Cutter said the turtle more than likely died from swallowing a plastic bag _ a death he described as horribly slow and painful. Seeing things like this make me very sad. Treat the world as if it is truly your home. Because people, this is the ONLY place we have. Treat it right. Treat it with respect.

- ``Plastic shopping bags kill large numbers of wildlife each year,'' he said. ``That's one of the most common reasons for deaths in turtles as they think the bags are jellyfish, which is their main food source.'' ``I urge people to be conscious of what you do. What seems like a little act of littering can cause disastrous affects on marine life.''

- "Authorities have lashed out at irresponsible litterers after a giant green turtle was found choking to death off a Darwin beach yesterday."

- It's really upsetting to read things like this, if we all could just put our thrash where it belongs and not dump it in nature.
