Many different organisms have been known to latch onto a sea turtle's back. What do you think of this method of underwater transportation?

Ok so no parasites…

Please save the turtle and all wildlife- we need our wild friends badly !!!!!
Wish the people in my area stop eating turtles. I had a rude awakening when I saw some live turtles in a sack in my grandma's house, I cried and attempted to free the turtles but I got punished and got called stupid for trying to free them.
VERY VERY FANTASTIC VIDEO.
Praying for the turtle
Y no se los kitan jijos de su putamadre chinguen a su rreputamadre todos
Kinda like BLM and Antifa… we feel their pain of worthless freeloaders.
Y no la ayudan jijos de su chingadamadre chinguen a su rreputamadre todos

turt
The Japanese would eat those barnacles
Les bernacles filtrent l eau seul ça va mais à plusieurs c est lourd et handicapant pour la nage de l animal tortues ou baleines.
I've seen videos with turtles absolutely covered with barnacles, so many they can hardly swim. If they cover it's face, it has to hard time eating. I can't agree with the commentator saying the parasitic things on turtles pose no danger to the turtle. Not true.
Coloquem a tradução para entendermos. Obrigada
Ma scusi visto che c'era: xche nn gliela tirato via quel mollusco????? Bah
In truth while barnacles (which are a crustacean) can create heavy loads on turtles, enough to cause severe health issues and death they are technically NOT parasites. Dumb title to this that is obviously written by some moron with very little knowledge of the subject.
Non parasitic??? Barnacles weigh it down killing it!!!!!
Does anyone know if dislodged barnacles die because they cannot cement onto another object and get buried in the seafloor?
Not true, these parasites can hurt the turtle if too many accumulate on them. they should be removed when possible
I wonder who is eating all these beautiful sea turtles probably China they eat every thing rlse
Why can’t we just eat barnacles as opposed to turtles?
Sadly green turtles are killed for their meat & eggs, Turtles too!!??!!??
They are sacred
Poor turtles!
They should have removed the barnacle from the turtle. No respect for the turtle.
I want to remove it and squish it
I just wanna chip that big barnacle off & pull that remora away from it.
