Surprise!! We’re so excited to announce the release of our largest sea turtle patient of 2025- Pegasus!! Pegasus came to us from the @nationalaquarium a few months ago to finish out her time in rehabilitation, and we’re so excited to see her head back out into the ocean! Pegasus is an adult female loggerhead that stranded June 4th of 2024 due to buoyancy problems due to a suspected vessel strike. Pegasus is now over 250 pounds and is more than ready to restart her life out in the ocean! Join us
