Loggerhead turtles recovering at 成人直播-MARC make a splash in the news

On December 6, 2012, multiple television channels, including WGME News 13, WCSH Newscenter 6, WLBZ TV, and WMTW News 8 aired coverage of the story of six loggerhead turtles,  rescued in a hypothermic state from Cape Cod Bay, who received care at 成人直播鈥檚 Marine Animal Rehabilitation Center (MARC).  The Journal Tribune also reported on the story in the December 7th issue.

The turtles were sent to 成人直播-MARC from the New England Aquarium, which had no room for them due to a record-breaking number of turtles in need of care during this year鈥檚 stranding season.  Every year in November and December, hypothermic turtles are rescued from the waters of Cape Cod Bay, as the animals are not able to navigate around the hooked tip of Cape Cod to move southward to warmer water.

The six loggerheads who were cared for at MARC were flown via Coast Guard plane to a turtle facility in Florida for further recuperation in order to make room at MARC for more Cape Cod turtles in need of urgent care.
