Restoration Gulf Coast: Florida's sea turtles

Video image - Restoration Gulf Coast: Florida's sea turtles

From the moment it hatches and for most of its life, a sea turtle is faced with multiple perils. For this reason, the efforts of marine biologists at the Marine Science Center in Ponce Inlet, Florida are very important. Just 1 in 10,000 sea turtles survives to adulthood, and these conservationists help to give the few in their care a fighting chance. The important work of the Marine Science Center is funded in part by a grant from BP's Recovered Oil Fund for Wildlife.
