Thesis Statement: The bowser shell is designed to protect endangered turtles. The shell will be attached to the turtle using an elastic band, there will be spikes attached to the shell to scare off any predators when they come nearby.

Possible names: Bowser shell, spike shell, turtle protector, bowser, The repel shell, defense shell, protection shell, sea turtle protection shell, sharp shell.

Build Instructions: First off, we need to get the measurement of the turtle size we are doing the actual size of it. Then we get cardboard and measurements and cut out a curved shell. Then we cut out "spikes" and attach them to the cardboard. Afterwards, we attach an elastic band  to the shell. And bam. 

Thesis Statement: The Bowser shell is a shell that is meant to protect the turtle and scare off beings. It is connected to the waist of the turtle with a strap. When something is nearby the spikes will activate and swing back and forth.

Possible Names: Spikey shell, Spike trap, Turtle protector shell, the Bowser shell, Bowser, the repel shell, sea turtle saver, life saver, defense shell, sharp shell.

Step by Step Instructions: We first need to figure out the size of the leather back sea turtle shell. Then we need to cut out a oval like shape cardboard and then we need to curve the cardboard so it will fit the turtle better. We then need to create the spikes that will be on the turtle shell swinging back and forth. Finally, we need to add on the elastic band or strap to the shell.

Sea turtle-"Slaughtered for their eggs, meat, skin and shells, sea turtles suffer from poaching and over-exploitation. They also face habitat destruction and accidental capture in fishing gear"

Yellow-Billed Cuckoo- Habitat losses, breeding habitats have been reduced 

Island Bedstraw- "Habitat alteration caused by soil loss and herbivory from feral pig rooting and sheep grazing, trampling and pig rooting along the sea cliffs increases the likelihood of slope failure"
