Answer:
The leatherback sea turtles eat jellyfish and can weigh as much 2000 pounds.
Explanation:
The leatherbacks are called so because of their waxy, leathery carapace. They dive and stay in deep waters, where usually jellyfishes are found. These turtle mainly feed on jellyfish for their diet.
They also have extremely large salt glands, bigger than their brains, to ingest the high amounts of salts they take in along with the jellyfishes. Leatherbacks are the largest known turtles and also ones that dives the deepest into sea waters.
