Our new turtle hospital ward

We are happy to report the opening of our new Sea Turtle Recovery Room. [The space that housed the Sea Turtle Recovery Room is now The Trust Family Foundation Shark and Ray Touch Tank. Rescued sea turtles are now cared for at the new, much larger Animal Care Clinic in Quincy.] The recovery room features a 25-foot-long pool and a 15-foot-long pool. We have recently moved three of our rehabilitating turtles to the new tanks (Bruce the loggerhead, and Bubba and Casper the Kemp's ridleys).

The recovery room is on display in the West Wing of the Aquarium, so stop by to visit our turtles!
