Stranding Response

SEA TURTLE DATA COLLECTION AND SAFETY TRAINING

Year-round, we respond  to emergency calls regarding stranded turtles—those sick, entangled, injured, or deceased—that wash ashore. We record carapace size, species type, sex, location, condition, injuries, and tags. After performing a necropsy, we responsibly dispose of the remains. Subsequently, we tabulate and submit the results to the pertinent authorities.

After conducting a necropsy, we responsibly handle the remains, ensuring proper disposal in adherence to environmental standards.
