Sheldon is a green sea turtle, which means he is a herbivore and likes to munch on sea grass and seaweed. He lives in the tropical waters of the Pacific ocean and enjoys swimming and playing around the coral reef he calls home. Luckily he has a great sense of direction because his adventures take him across long distances in the ocean. Sea Turtles can live up to 100 years so he has a long life ahead with plenty of adventures to be had.
