Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle.
.
From the largest (the Leatherback) to the smallest Sea Turtle in the world.
.
The Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtle is also the most endangered sea turtle in the world. With a IUCN status of "Critically Endangered". What does this status actually mean?
.
"It is a crisis category reserved for species that, among other things, are characterized by having sustained "an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected reduction of atleast 80% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is longer".
.
Experts estimate that the current rate of species extinction is 1,000 to 10,000 times higher than normal.
.
A scary thought for our planet and these little guys.

I wanted to re-share this painting I did some time

I wanted to re-share this painting I did some time ago thats purpose was to spread awareness to the damage that plastic pollution is causing to our marine life and our oceans.
.
I have been hearing a lot of backlash lately since @seaspiracy aired toward the fight against reducing plastics. The film no doubt highlights a lot of important issues around the commercial fishing industry and other issues facing our oceans. But what I don't like about the film is that it seems to vilify those that are fighting to reduce plastic pollution. As if to say 'why bother with reducing plastics when there is a larger issue of commercial fishing that needs to be addressed?'
.
The issue of plastic pollution in our oceans is complex, multifaceted and overwhelming. There is no denying that discarded fishing gear is a hugeee concern and yes it requires immediate action and resources to change industry practices and campaigns to fight this battle. But it is not to say, that other plastic pollution is of no concern and doesnt require the same action.
.
Instead of bringing together people that have the same, one agenda: 'help our oceans', it instead causes division and mistrust. Lets not battle each other about which is the most important issue to tackle, but instead lets all work together to tackle each and every issue. Some organisations may choose to tackle reducing plastic bags, or straws, or other single use plastics and bloody good on them!! 👏👏 others will focus the fight on changing commercial fishing industry practices and bloody good on them too!! 👏👏
.
Reducing your own plastic use is an important step in the right direction! Do not feel as if there is no point, because there most certainly is! Every piece of plastic that doesn't enter our oceans is a win! No matter how big or small! It is saving our marine life, 1 less plastic bag or cup or straw at a time.

Leatherbacks are the largest and most widely distr

Leatherbacks are the largest and most widely distributed marine sea turtle. They can grow up to 2m in length and weigh as much as 700kg! An incredibly impressive marine animal!
.
The Leatherback's population is estimated to have declined by as much as 40% over the last 3 generations (approx 120 years). They face a vast range of threats over their wide distribution range, including:

🐢 slaughtering of turtles for their meat, eggs and shells
.
🐢 Bycatch from commercial fisheries. Their foraging habitat unfortunately overlaps with that of valuable target species such as tuna, putting them at high risk to being captured in fishing nets.

🐢 Furthermore, entanglement in discarded fishing gear continues to further decimate populations.

🐢 Plastic bags and other plastic debris is often mistaken as the turtles main food source of jellyfish, leading to ingestion and fatalities.
.
🐢 loss & degradation of nesting sites
.
🐢 Vessel strikes
.
🐢 Climate change- which alters sand temperatures and affects the sex of the hatchlings
.
It is abundantly clear that these turtles (along with all other sea turtles species) existence is being directly and severely threatened by human activities & that it is NOW that changes to our practices NEED to occur, before they are wiped from our oceans forever.

Taking a step back in my make shift studio while we are between houses and looking at my finally finished oceanic white tip painting!
.
Moving house, renovating & living at my folks place while we are between homes has sure made this a slower process!
.
But I'm so so stoked at the final product!
.
What do you think?? Would you like me to make prints of this guy?
