The Sea Turtle Hospital
Вставка

- In the Florida Keys, the Turtle Hospital is fighting to save the dwindling population of American sea turtles. The hospital, which works to rehabilitate sick and injured sea turtles, treats human-caused conditions like flipper amputations, shell damage from boat collisions, and intestinal issues from ingesting plastic bags and fishing line. The most common surgery performed at the Turtle Hospital is the removal of viral tumors called Fibropapilloma, that affect over half of green sea turtles. In this short film, The Atlantic goes inside the Turtle Hospital to see firsthand the fight against sea turtle extinction.

thanks for helping this beautiful animals
Awesome! I recently produced a video about the turtle hospital. Such an amazing place!
😢😢😢😢😢😢
The laws should get very strict on littering at all...Make it an extremely expensive fine to help pay for the rehabilitation of turtles, or any wildlife in the oceans for that matter!
unfortunately infrastructure/humanities seem to be far more important on the minds of government, in the USA and here in Australia. we still have a long way to go in working along side the environment
God bless you Sea Turtle Hospital
This is a very well done segment on an amazing organization. Thank you.
Ventilator turtle Florida

I have a question. I have a turtle I track through Fahlo. Her name is Lady Jane. Last fall she was primarily in the Atlantic now she is all the way up in the Gulf ofSt Lawrence. I am worried the water up there will be too cold. Unsure if I can send you a picture of the map where she is currently at
Professor is so cute flapping his fins 😇😍
Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you for all you do to save these precious sea turtles.
They look like an ancient reptilian creature, but a super cute one simultaneously.

Are we aloud to adopt a sea turtle?
The only two questions I have for the enzootic pathogen for Turtle fibropapillomatosis, are there any antivirals and more importantly vaccines for them?
What’s it cost ?
