The two green sea turtles were satellite tagged, which allows us to collect data on where the turtles swim, feed, and travel.  This season, all of our rescued turtles were named after spices!  So join us in saying "best fishes" to Taco Seasoning, Garam Masala, Tajin, Red Pepper Flake, Clove, Wasabi, and Caraway!

Rescue & Rehabilitation Director Adam Kennedy says they've helped over 3000 sea turtles that call New England waters home, many of them endangered.  Adam says that the reason they land in the aquarium hospital for rehab is because when winter approaches, some of these turtles don't have the strength to migrate out safely and end up washing up onto various Cape Cod beaches.

It's there that they're rescued each year and rehabilitated, then released the following summer if they're ready.
For more than 25 years, the New England Aquarium has partnered with Mass Audubon’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary to rescue, rehabilitate, and release thousands of endangered and threatened sea turtles.
