Here's an update on our cold-stunned Kemp's ridleys! ❄️

After their long flight from the Northeast with LightHawk, these turtles remain in critical condition with frostbite, pneumonia, and other cold-related complications at our Center. Our hospital team is continuing to provide customized, intensive care for these chilly patients.

Every day of treatment matters, and these Greek-named Kemp’s ridleys are exactly where they need to be as they begin the next phase of their recovery.

They are expected to be with us for a few months, so come visit them and support their rehabilitation!

Our latest rescue? A group of 24 cold-stunned sea turtles with Greek mythology names! 🛟

The large group of critically endangered juvenile Kemp's ridley sea turtles are settling in and warming up while we provide critical care.

As temperatures dropped across the Northeast, the New England Aquarium received an influx of cold-stunned sea turtles.

Visit the Center to say hi to Triton, Pandora, Medusa, and more!

UPDATE: The organization that facilitated the transportation was LightHawk. We are so thankful for all their hard work!

Eeyore traded gloom for joy and the waves! 🌊

We're so excited to share that after a remarkable journey of rehabilitation at our Center, Eeyore has returned to the ocean.

This juvenile green sea turtle was found in critical condition with symptoms that indicated a neurological disorder. At first, Eeyore was struggling to eat on their own and could only swim in shallow water.

Thanks to the help of treatments such as antibiotics and physical therapy, as well as time building strength in our recently renovated Oh Family Deep Dive Tank, we are confident Eeyore will thrive back out in the waves!
