Sea Turtle Finds Lost Camera, then dies

A videographer who also happens to be a sea turtle has become a media star for filming the journey of a lost digicam that traveled 1,100 miles by sea and is now on the way back to its owner.

The seafaring saga started last November, when Royal Dutch Navy sergeant Dick de Bruin apparently lost his red Nikon Coolpix L18 while exploring an underwater shipwreck off the coast of Aruba. Six months later, Coast Guard investigator Paul Shultz spotted the cam--encased in sea-debris-encrusted Ikelite waterproof housing but intact--when it washed ashore in Key West, Fla.

@damygeebo Ay Jackass ,The Palestinians are the ones that were there first,

like the Native Americans(even though I hate to use that term it should just be Americans)in america,

and the Aborigines in Australia

According to You the man who pelts a stone is a terrorist.

The man that bombs and kills a family of 15 in response is not?

@damygeebo as You are so into preservation,did You think the animal maybe died of exhaustion as they normally do?What You should have done is cut it open.If it was a laying female,go inland dig a hole and bury the eggs

@damygeebo Can't visit without a reference! Supply and demand motherfucker.
