Now that there becoming endangered they seem to be more interested in it. here is another site with some more information that i found interesting http://animals.about.com/b/2009/09/17/dna-barcodes-identify-endangered-sea-turtles.htm Wow that’s pretty crazy, you would imagine that they would do DNA work way before to figure the animals out.

I don't really understand what purpose this serves though. Can't you tell the differences in turtles by the way they look? I looked for how much it costs to bar code a sea turtle but I couldn't find it. I read a few other articles on this process but none of them explained how it was done. Do you think that this could hurt the turtles? I read the article and in there is says that the DNA bar code extracts the part of the DNA that distinguishes the differences in the turtles.
