Sažetak
The stranding of a subadult leatherback, Dermochelys coriacea, with a curved carapace length of 1.18 m was observed in southern Mauritania. We discuss the lack of observations of leatherback juveniles and subadults along the Atlantic coast of Africa. The seasonal presence of leatherbacks along the Mauritanian coast may be explained by the water temperature and the presence of prey, but there is insufficient data to support this hypothesis.
