Tangled in Fishing Net | Sea Turtle Rescue

our primary objective is to survey and
remove derelict fishing gear
specifically nets for the purpose of
removing entangled matters and in some
cases we’re fortunate enough to get on
scene to find turtles or monk seals
entangled and in this case we located
the net first and then we realized that
there was a green sea turtles entangled
on the other side and who knows how long
it would have been able to survive being
entangled but we were fortunate enough
to get a boat team on it and cut it away
carefully and as you can see by the
video it was a very enlightening feeling
to see it actually swim off on its own
and feeling that we we we just saved one
turtle it was a bonus effort and at the
end the day we also remove the net so it
was a win-win situation for us
