Iconic grazer of seagrass, Marsa Mubarak's signature animal.
Reliable sightings at Marsa Mubarak and Abu Dabbab where seagrass meadows feed resident populations. They live 60+ years and return to the same beach to nest. Listed as endangered. Don't ever touch them, it disturbs their natural behaviour and can transfer harmful skin bacteria.
