MIND REHAB: We call him... Barba

We call him... Barba

You may not really know him.

You may not have seen him yet.

But he's one real jewel that you'd be glad to have.

He's not afraid to be himself.

He's opinionated.

Tactless at times - but always means well.

He can be a clown.

He can be a shoulder to cry on.

He's a true friend to those who accept him as he is.

He is a viper to those who criticize him when he is not around.

He is at times innocent.

But he is never ignorant.

He does not want people knowing that he wants to be the best.

But he sure does work hard to be one of the best.

I just wish that he never changes.

He is my dear friend

And we call him...Barba.

SPACE for NATURE

The world’s largest species of turtle, the leatherback is indeed a giant of the seas. This species earned its name due to the lack of bony plates on its shell, which is instead flexible and covered in a thin layer of leathery skin. Perhaps the greatest threat to the leatherback turtle is global climate change. This is expected to affect this species through habitat loss, physiological changes and loss of prey. Other threats to the leatherback turtle include accidental capture by fishing nets, boat strikes, and ingestion of discarded plastics, which the turtles mistake for jellyfish. The leatherback turtle is protected throughout most of its range and many conservation projects have been set up on leatherback turtle nesting beaches. However, the future still remains uncertain for this fantastic reptile.
