Each Box Contains a Healthy Sea Turtle Saved at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center

Cold-stunned turtles can die - but after about 36 hours of warming, most are fine. The Atlantic off Boca Raton's Red Reef was at 72F as the 15 plate-sized turtles got put back in the water by the staff of Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. Turtle centers from the Keys to the Carolinas all received more than a year's worth of turtles in a single week! $$$
