8. Sea Turtles of the Great Barrier Reef with Richard Fitzpatrick

Tanya Murphy Season 1 Episode 8

🐢  Sea turtles can grow to the size of a table, navigate using magnets in their brain, and fight off gangs of sharks. 🦈  But after 100 million years in our oceans, their existence is now under threat. This week we visit Raine Island with Marine Biologist and Emmy-winning cinematographer Richard Fitzpatrick to find out why.
