Loggerhead Turtle

Caretta caretta

Description:

Sea turtle found in oceans worldwide

Notes:

While walking on the beach between Flat Rocks and Cape Recife we found this little fellow stranded and dehydrated. We placed it in a small pool and it showed signs of recovering. We took it to Bayworld in Humewood Port Elizabeth where it will hopefully be rehabilitated and returned to the Ocean.
