2 green sea turtles released into Gulf

2 Endangered Sea Turtles were released back into the Gulf of Mexico Wednesday morning.

The green sea turtles were the last of over 200 that were rescued this year for cold stun rehabilitation after severe cold snaps in January.

Sea turtles are cold blooded so when it becomes very cold they become weak and can and succumb to secondary illnesses such as pneumonia.

The turtles were rescued from St. Joe Bay, and rehabilitated at the Gulf world marine Institute before being released into the Gulf at the Crooked Island Beach Access in Tyndall Air Force Base.
