NEW patient alert! “Luna Diane”. 🐢🦀 Luna Diane, a large Loggerhead sea turtle, was spotted by a recreational boater late Sunday, who contacted the US Coast Guard Key West Sector. The Coast Guard rescued the turtle on the water, and our team met them at the dock with the Turtle Hospital ambulance. 🚑 She’s covered in barnacles, and a crab can even be seen exiting and entering the wound in her shell where a boat had hit her. 💔 Luna Diane has a long road of recovery ahead. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers! 🙏 #barnaclesgonewild #barnacles #seaturtlebarnacles #crab #loggerheadseaturtle #loggerhead #loggerheadturtle #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #nature #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #animals #fyp #seaturtlelove #savetheturtles #STEM #floridakeys #education #patient #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #animaltiktok #turtletok

Turkey is one of the juvenile Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles that transferred from New England back in December. ❄️ Last night, Turkey received a lung wash with Dr. Mike Dunn. He was cold-stunned and is now being treated for severe fungal pneumonia and osteomyelitis. Samples from his lung wash were sent for sensitivity cultures and cytology to help our medical team target treatment for Turkey. 🚑 #kempsridleyseaturtle #kempsridley #kempsridleyturtle #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #nature #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #animals #fyp #seaturtlelove #savetheturtles #STEM #floridakeys #education #patient #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #animaltiktok #turtletok

Lots of footage from the Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle exams yesterday! 🧐🐢 During the sea turtle examinations, Dr. Terry looks at their eyes and mouth, then palpates the joints to see if they are swollen. He’ll also check their skin for lesions. 👨⚕️ We’ll do an X-ray to check their lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and bones, plus check their blood chemistry. 🩻 Stay tuned! Some of these Kemp’s Ridleys may be getting their swimming papers for release soon! 🌊 #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #nature #turtletok #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #floridakeys #STEM #education #animals #animaltiktok #fyp #seaturtlelove #patient #savetheturtles #kempsridleyseaturtle #kempsridley #kempsridleyturtle

It is with heavy hearts that we report, Benson a Loggerhead Sea Turtle in rehabilitation at The Turtle Hospital has passed away. Benson had barnacles removed so the veterinarian team could do a diagnostic endoscope. The scope confirmed Benson had internal FP tumors. Benson had the LARGEST FP TUMOR ever recorded in a sea turtle. The tumor weighed 28.2 pounds!! Caution, graphic content. RIP Benson ..#connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #floridakeys #STEM #education #animals #animaltiktok #fyp #seaturtlelove #patient #savetheturtles #loggerheadseaturtle #loggerhead #loggerheadturtle #barnacleremoval #barnacles #seaturtlebarnacles #fpsucks

Luna Diana is eating well and is now in deeper water! 🐢💧 Luna Diana is the loggerhead sea turtle that arrived at The Turtle Hospital about a week ago with a boat strike injury, barnacles, and a crab hiding in the wound of her shell. She’s doing better already and is even enjoying a little back scrub every now and then. ❤️🩹 Today, she is scheduled for an exam with Dr. Terry. Wish her luck! 🙏 #barnacles #seaturtlebarnacles #loggerheadseaturtle #loggerhead #loggerheadturtle #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #nature #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #animals #fyp #seaturtlelove #savetheturtles #STEM #floridakeys #education #patient #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #animaltiktok #turtletok

Luna Diana's Exam with Dr. Terry. 🐢👨⚕️ We weighed her in at 271 lbs (122.92 kg). Dr. Terry applied some wound care to her boat strike, and during that procedure, we were able to rescue the crab and return it to sea. 🦀 We relocated Luna Diana to the tidal pool to see how she would do in deeper water and a slightly more natural environment. 🌊 Luna Diana's bloodwork is good, she is eating well, and she appears strong! It is unknown how much damage has been done to her spine from the boat strike, and we do not know if she will have lingering positive buoyancy issues. ❤️🩹 Keep her in your prayers and send plenty of healing energies for this gorgeous loggerhead sea turtle! 🙏 #barnacles #seaturtlebarnacles #crab #loggerheadseaturtle #loggerhead #loggerheadturtle #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #seaturtles #science #nature #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #animals #fyp #seaturtlelove #savetheturtles #STEM #floridakeys #education #patient #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #animaltiktok #turtletok
