The National Aquarium returned 25 juvenile sea turtles to their ocean home at the end of February following successful rehabilitation.
The 13 Kemp’s ridley and 12 green sea turtles, released on February 22 in St. Augustine, Florida, all suffered from ailments stemming from cold stunning at the end of 2022. Fifteen of the turtles were treated by National Aquarium staff, while seven were treated by the Mystic Aquarium, and three were treated by the Virginia Aquarium.
This year was the third-highest cold-stun season on record, with over 850 sea turtles stranding in the Greater Atlantic Region from Maine to Virginia.
