Sea turtles do not have teeth but their mouths are sharp and beak-like for crushing and tearing food. Depending on the species, sea turtles may be carnivorous, herbivorous, or omnivorous. Their jaws are adapted for their diet. A loggerhead’s diet consists primarily of crabs, mollusks, shrimps, jellyfish, so their jaws are adapted for crushing and grinding. Whereas, green sea turtles, the only adult herbivorous sea turtles have finely serrated jaws adapted for a vegetarian diet of sea grasses and algae.
The Masai individually mark their cattle with long curving lines and intricate patterns designed to enhance the animal’s beauty.
The Masai treasure their cattle and bond emotionally with them. They sing songs praising their cows and express affection for them. Bulls with large horns are especially prized, and young calves are tenderly cared for. The Masai’s special relationship with cows stems from the belief that all cattle belong to them, a gift from the great god N’gai at the beginning of time — a belief which justifies the ongoing practice of cattle raiding.
