Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The graph shows that harvesting of turtles for food, pets, or medicine and destruction of wetlands and breeding beaches are two of the largest factors in the decline of turtle populations. Both of these factors directly impact the survival and reproduction of turtle populations. Invasive species, rising temperatures, and disease from introduced parasites may also contribute to the decline in some areas, but they are not shown as significant factors on the graph.
