Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Network

The Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Network is a coordinated effort of organizations and experts dedicated to helping injured or sick sea turtles recover. When a turtle is found harmed—due to boat strikes, fishing gear, pollution, or other threats—rescue teams gather it, provide medical care, and monitor its health. Once strong enough, the turtle is released back into the wild. This network ensures that rescued turtles receive specialized treatment and that their recovery contributes to conservation efforts, helping maintain healthy sea turtle populations and protect marine ecosystems.
