Hundreds of sea turtles found dead near El Salvador

Why did hundreds of turtles perish near El Salvador? The country's ministry of environment and natural resources (MARN) said they found dead turtles in Jiquilisco Bay, and took samples to try and determine why the animals died. National Geographic floated fishing and algal blooms as two reasons for sea turtle die-offs.
