🐢 Meet Jekyll! 🐢 This subadult loggerhead sea turtle recently joined us at the C.A.R.E. Center after being impacted by recreational fisheries bycatch. Jekyll was accidentally hooked by a fisherman resulting with a J-hook lodged in his esophagus and an additional hook in his stomach. Our team has started him on our specialized internal hook protocol, designed to encourage the natural passage of the internal hook. This protocol can sometimes prevent the need for a more invasive procedure like su

One of the major threats to sea turtles is bycatch, where they get caught in fishing gear and drowned. NOAA Fisheries worked with fishermen to develop turtle excluder devices, or TEDs, to reduce turtle bycatch. TEDs are grids of metal bars fitted to fish trawl nets. They allow small animals like shrimp to pass through and be caught in the net, but stops turtles and allows them to exit safely through an opening in the net. TED development began in the 1970s, and federal regulations required their

💡Bright Ideas to Save Sea Turtles! ✨ Each year, hundreds of thousands of sea turtles are accidentally caught in fishing gear—a phenomenon known as bycatch. But what if a simple light could change that? 🔅 Dr. Joanna Alfaro and her organisation, ProDelphinus, are testing an innovative solution in Peru's fisheries: LED lights on fishing nets. These lights alert turtles of the nets as upcoming barriers, significantly reducing accidental entanglements. Early trials show promising results, making tu
