Turtles in the Gulf

Uncategorized Add comments

The oil spill in the Gulf has been on the minds of many lately.  There is of course great concern for how the oil may affect all kinds of wildlife including sea turtles.  Below is a link to an article and video from the New York Times.  The website takes a look at many factors that could be increasing sea turtle strandings in the gulf, some of which may come as a surprise.

We at the GSTC have not yet been called upon to assist with sea turtles in the Gulf, but are ready if the need does arise.
