Leatherback Turtle Swims Across Pacific
In this photo released by the World Wildlife Fund, Scott Benson, left, of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Services helps attach a satellite tracking device to a leatherback turtle at a remote beach in Indonesia's Papua province on July 20, 2003. Scientists tracked a leatherback turtle that swam from Indonesia to the U.S. in an epic 20,000-kilometer (13,000-mile) journey as it searched for food, research they hope will boost international efforts to save the endangered species.
