%X Digesta retention time (DRT) of particulate matter (the calculated time for elimination of 50% of marker beads) and food intake levels were measured in three wild immature green turtles, Chelonia mydas, by using inert plastic markers. DRTs were long, ranging from 156 to 325 h (6.5&#8211;13.5 days).
