Sea Turtle on Mustang Island

Meet Uno, my first live turtle find doing Turtle Patrol for the ARK in Port Aransas, Texas. Uno is a young Loggerhead, not feeling well and needing a little help to recover. He/she was loaded on a truck by Ron Smith and Tony Amos, then transported to the ARK and is resting comfortably.

How lucky you were there to meet that beautiful creature. I assume that barnacles that impede movement or vision would be removed during rehab?

You are so lucky, Norma. I wish I was with you, turtling. (from the the new verb, to turtle)
