A January cold snap impacted record numbers of green sea turtles along the Texas coast. State and federal agencies, along with a network of volunteers, recovered over 425 turtles, of which 153 were rescued alive. The live turtles were taken to various facilities for observation and care. For more on the threatened green sea turtle, see http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/huntwild/wild/species/greentur/
