The Gulf Specimen Marine Lab in Panacea will hold a sea turtle release next week at Alligator Point

The Gulf Specimen Marine Lab in Panacea will hold a sea turtle release next week at Alligator Point.

 

Next Wednesday, the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab will release a Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle they’ve named “Scuttle.”

 

Scuttle was brought to the Marine Lab after being hooked in the jaw, and has since recovered fully.

 

She is eating well and has been deemed healthy and ready for release.

 

The Kemp's Ridley will be released at noon on August 24th from the first public beach access at Alligator Point, FL.

 

This will be a public event, so all are welcome to join us in wishing her a safe journey as she continues on!
