After eight months of rehabilitation, four green sea turtles –
have been released back into Northern New South Wales waters.
Relased back onto the beach she was found, Apple has successfully recovered from a boat strike injury.
Dennis, Boombah and Udon were also returned to Hastings Point after being transferred to Sea World five weeks ago.
“It’s really rewarding especially when we can have the community down here. We’ve actually got the lady who found Apple down here with us today so it’s really heart warming for her to see Apple go back out there into the ocean.” said Sea World Turtle Rehabilitation Coordinator, Siobhan Houlihan.seab
The animals completed their rehabilitation there, after the Australian Seabird and Turtle Rescue Ballina flooded.
