Our Sea Turtle is too cold! Help us save it neaq.org/brave
We found a Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle, the rarest and most endangered on earth, beached and freezing cold in Cape Cod. Without immediate help this turtle has very little chance of survival. Join the rescue effort as we follow its journey to be rehabilitated and hopefully released to swim in the ocean again. Will our sea turtle survive? … watch to find out!
Rare and critically endangered sea turtles are freezing cold and washing up on the shores of New England each fall because of changing weather patterns. Luckily, we have joined forces with the conversation efforts to save these “cold-stunned” turtles which is led by the New England Aquarium and Mass Audubon. Each year hundreds of volunteers comb the sandy beaches of Massachusetts in search of these distressed turtles so they can be rehabilitated and released back into the wild.
Big thanks to the staff and volunteers at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and the clinical team and volunteers at the New England Aquarium’s Sea Turtle Hospital. Without their tireless efforts thousands of critically endangered sea turtles would certainly not survive these increasing weather events. Please consider joining us in helping them!

Special thank you to the pilots and volunteers of Turtles Fly Too. Without these transports the Sea Turtle Hospital would be over capacity and many hundreds more sea turtles would be at risk.
Last, but certainly not least, we would like to thank the participants of this video. Pam, Janette, Adam, Sasha, Chuck and Matt - thank you all so so much and we look forward to helping out again next season!
