Donate today: https://seewinter-3802.wedid.it/ Our team has been very busy over the past few days caring for an influx of sick sea turtles brought in by colder weather and water temperatures. We have received over 50 intakes in less than a week. More continue to arrive and need assistance. Help us care for all these sea turtle patients and get them back home to the ocean!

In most of the cases, these sea turtles were already compromised with viruses, boat strikes and buoyancy issues. Low water temperatures and high winds can cause already sick sea turtles to become even more lethargic, and many have been found floating, causing this influx of intakes to our facility.

Clearwater Marine Aquarium is providing critical care to these sick sea turtles 24 hours a day. We rely on your donations and we need your help. Donate today: https://seewinter-3802.wedid.it/
