Cold-Stunned sea turtles in Florida needed rescue after they were caught in a cold snap in the ocean.
In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, we dive into the dramatic rescue of 17 sea turtles found cold-stunned off the coast of northern Florida after an unexpected deep freeze. I'll explain what cold-stunning is, how it affects sea turtles, and why sudden temperature drops are becoming more common. You'll hear about the incredible efforts of the Loggerhead Marinelife Center in rehabilitating these turtles and helping them recover. Plus, we'll explore how climate change is impacting sea turtle habitats and migrations—and I'll share simple actions you can take to protect these amazing creatures and their ocean homes. Stay tuned for an inspiring story of resilience and conservation!
