Green turtles, Chehnia mydas, have been called edible turtles as theirs is the best and most delicately flavoured meat. Their fat is greenish in colour. 

The scutes on the carapace of the loggerhead are not nearly as pretty as those of the other turtles, and are as thin and fragile as those of the green turtle. Nonetheless the material has been used as tortoiseshell, thou mainly as veneer. The shells are also sold whole. 

Turtle farming has been attempted in the Cayman Islands, but with little success for the hawksbill. There has been much more success with green turtles, but although the shell is thicker than that of wild green turtles, the material is not of very good quality and it tends to crack. It also has a high salt content, which makes it imsuitable for moulding.

Could the directional device, the simple F3O4 unit, also be responsible for direction finding in higher organisms in much the same way that an explorer uses a compass Perhaps so Recent studies have shown evidence of magnetosomes in the brains of birds, tuna, green turtles, and dolphins.
