A female green sea turtle towing along a lucky male during their mating courtship.  The mating process is much less enjoyable for female green sea turtles. They will often have multiple males pursuing them, trying to throw themselves on top of the females to successfully mount them. The males dig sharp claws on their front flippers into the females to hold on.  The female will then have to out swim other pursuing males and frequently surface for air all while towing the lucky male  around.
