Sea turtle mating is an aggressive process, for the male and the female. Several males may compete for a female at the same time, and the males will cling to a female's shell for hours to prevent other turtles from mating with her. From crushing depths to raging coasts, the ocean is a place of extremes, where some of the most adaptable animals on Earth must battle for survival. Tune in to Hostile Planet: Oceans tomorrow at 7pm, on National Geographic WILD UK. | National Geographic UK
