Gulf World Marine Institute is
releasing 8 Kemp’s ridley sea turtles into the Gulf of Mexico on
Wednesday, February 6th at 10:30 am Eastern on St. George Island.
The release will occur on the beach at
12th street west on St. George Island.
To find it just turn toward the Gulf
before entering the Plantation.
These sea turtles are the first group
from New England to be medically cleared for release.
In November of 2018, GWMI received over
50 sea turtles from New England Aquarium.
Due to the large number of stranded
turtles in New England, the New England Aquarium reached out to other
members of the stranding network for assistance.
The public is invited to attend this
event.
