Sea Turtle Release on Jekyll Island

July 14, 2010: Along with the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, we sent eight turtles back to the sea. Our four were named Sunny, Ada Lee, Krista and Gary. The turtles were rescued in February after a cold stun that caused many animals to experience life-threatening health issues. We placed satellite tags on two of our turtles, Sunny and Ada Lee, so we are able to track their travels and health. See where the turtles are now: Track Sunny and Ada Lee today! http://www.georgiaaquarium.org/animalguide/sea-turtles/index.aspx

@arob006 These were all rescued turtles so once they were rehabilitated, we sent them back to their home in the sea!

Awesome video, check out these videos I'm doing on all kinds of things to see and do in Georgia. This is a ongoing project I'm working on to find neat liitle hidden spots in Georgia that not many people know about, then documenting them.

You are an inspiration.... All the Sea Creatures of the world just amaze me, they are all unique, they are all amazing, and every one helps the ocean in some way, even if science hasn't figured out how...

when i'm old enough I want to work at an aquarium, and save and release sea animals.... (Whale Shark is my favorite :))

Thanks for all the videos!!!
