... to food resources or open up new trophic niches in both aquatic and terrestrial systems. Loggerhead sea turtles are long-lived vertebrates with complex life histories that are marked by an ontogenetic shift from an oceanic habitat to a coastal neritic habitat, and a transition from soft oceanic prey...

...Nathan F. Putman; Philippe Verley; Thomas J. Shay; Kenneth J. Lohmann SUMMARY Young loggerhead sea turtles ( Caretta caretta ) from eastern Florida, USA, undertake a transoceanic migration in which they gradually circle the Sargasso Sea before returning to the North American coast. Loggerheads...
