🐢TURTLE HELPERS: This work at Jekyll Island Georgia Sea Turtle Center wouldn't be possible without their volunteers. "They're tiny & they're mighty...they're incredible creatures, they stole my heart right from the very beginning," says Kimberly Ball. She spends post-retirement time on beach patrols & in the hospital with experts. And I can attest...they stole my heart too. 💚 CNN | Meteorologist Elisa Raffa

On Jekyll Island off the Georgia coast, nearly three dozen endangered sea turtles were released last week after being found in frigid New England waters with a condition known as "cold-stunned." The Georgia Sea Turtle Center teamed up with volunteers from Northeast aquariums and conservation groups to bring 33 Kemp's ridley sea turtles and one green sea turtle to warmer southeastern waters where they can thrive. | PBS NewsHour

𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐚 🐢 Tortuguita arrived at the Center after being found entangled in fishing line near the Jekyll Island fishing pier. The line caused lacerations on the flippers, and abrasions were also found on the plastron—likely from contact with cement after being brought ashore. | Georgia Sea Turtle Center

Holy smokes, I just learned some really cool facts about sea turtles here at the Georgia Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island. Did you know female loggerheads reach sexual maturity at age 30? (I didn’t!) And they can lay up to six clutches of eggs—though usually more like 3 to 5 clutches—in one season??? But here’s the most amazing sea turtle fact: female sea, turtles can save male sperm, and use it at different times for fertilization! Isn’t that amazing? You can learn these cool sea turtle facts

Sights like these can only mean one thing... hatchling season is here! As you stroll along Jekyll Island's beaches, keep an eye out for these tiny turtles on their journey to the ocean. If you do see one: 🚨 Freeze and stay still to avoid stepping on them. 🚨 Do not touch or handle them in any way. 🚨 Turn off white lights to prevent disorienting them. Let's help our little friends make it safely to the sea! | Georgia Sea Turtle Center

Drive Alert ⚠️ The first diamondback terrapin was found on the Jekyll Island causeway on April 5! When visiting Jekyll, please be alert for terrapins now through July, as they leave the water to nest. The turtle crossing signs will flash when a high volume of terrapins is expected, however, terrapins may be seen at any time. 🐢 | Georgia Sea Turtle Center
