Summary[edit]

Description

Greetings from Texas. NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service, Southeast Fisheries Science Center, Galveston Laboratory raises captive sea turtles for research and rehabilitates sea turtles injured by fishing and other activities in the Gulf of Mexico. After research or rehabilitation activities are completed, the sea turtles are tagged and returned to the marine environment. Aside from husbandry and research duties, the sea turtle staff also conduct educational tours on the biology and conservation of sea turtles to 10,000 – 15,000 visitors each year, including teachers, K-12 students, scouts, university classes, the general public and special interest groups.
