The Turtle Hospital. Rescue, Rehab, Release.

Kincaid Released

Last March, a sub adult Loggerhead sea turtle showed up at the boat basin behind the Turtle Hospital. Kincaid was not acting normal and was captured and given a physical. It was determined the turtle had an infection and was very emaciated and weak. After 2 ½ months of antibiotics and large helpings of squid, the infection was gone and Kincaid had gained over 10 pounds.
