Australia: Sea turtle in distress plucked out of ocean by marine patrol, taken to wildlife rehabilitator


AUSTRALIA -- A routine patrol turns into a marine wildlife rescue and the crew at Volunteer Marine Rescue Victoria Point have done an amazing job, as always!

This marine sea turtle was seen floundering in the ocean, clearly in distress. They caught up to the turtle and hauled it aboard. After a quick examination, they took it to shore to deliver it to a wildlife officer for transport to a marine animal rehabilitation facility.

These hardworking volunteers don't just save human lives, they also have a hand in protecting our wonderful Moreton Bay as well!
