Incredible find near Punta del Este: they found the largest species of turtle in the world. It is the leatherback turtle, known as the seven-keeled turtle, whose shell can measure up to two meters long.
The discovery occurred during the first days of January, although it was only known several weeks later what animal it was. The expert explained that this animal " is common in Uruguayan waters," but in the depths, since " it does not come as close to the coast as the green turtle does"
