Tortuguero is the most important area of the Caribbean Midwest where the green tortoises (chelonian Mydas) come to lay their eggs. Other species of sea tortoises that also lay eggs along the canal of the park are Carey and Baula. The green tortoise is of medium size, with long fins that can reach up to one meter long; adult green tortoise can weight from 75 to 200 kg. It is an herbivorous animal. A characteristic of these tortoises is that they travel in large groups to mate in places away from their regular feeding areas. The topography of the Park consists of a large alluvial swamp, formed by the union of deltas that flooded part of the ancient canals of Nicaragua.  The alluvial plains are only broken in the west by the 300 meters height Sierpe peak that resulted from the remains of a small archipelago of volcanic source that used to exist in the area. The plains correspond to quaternaries alluvial deposits formed during the last millions of years.
