Are they even mandatory any where? I thought the parents can choose whether to have them or not.

I know there's that whole discussion regarding autism and stuff, but wasn't that disproven a few years back?

The Leatherback Sea Turtle is the largest turtle in the world, weighing approximately 900 kg. Contrary to appearance, the leatherback doesn't actually have a shell.
