- Two endangered green sea turtles, Challah and Gypsum, were successfully released back into the Gulf of Mexico on Thursday morning after undergoing extensive rehabilitation at Clearwater Marine Aquarium!
Challah, a juvenile green sea turtle, was found with predation injuries, likely caused by a shark attack. The rehab process for Challah was lengthy due to the specialized wound care required, including bandage changes, routine debridement, and cold laser therapy. However, after months of dedicated care from CMA's animal care staff, Challah's injuries have fully healed, and they were cleared for release!
Gypsum, a subadult green sea turtle, was discovered lethargic with their carapace and head covered in algae and barnacles. Although Gypsum was also missing its right front flipper, it had fully healed and was unrelated to the stranding. During the rehab process, Gypsum successfully passed monofilament fishing line. Following a thorough evaluation by CMA's staff veterinarian and FWC, Gypsum was deemed healthy and ready for release.
