Khepri

Intake: 3/26/19

Species: Green

Weight:

Reason: Predator attack to right front flipper

2/28- Khepri, the juvenile green sea turtle was found on a rocky sea cliff on St. Thomas called Coculus Point in Bolongo Bay. He was barely conscious and upside down on the rocks when they found him/her, and was actively bleeding for the next three days. The turtle has a massive traumatic injury on the right front flipper which appeared to be from a predator attack.

ue to Hurricane Dorian my flight has been delayed to go home.

9/9/19- Returned to St.Thomas to be released.
