Sea Turtles Go Wild

Eleven sea turtles are back in the wild after being released at the beach on Jekyll Island by the Georgia Sea Turtle Center. The Sea Turtle Center let the turtles go back to the ocean Wednesday after they recovered successfully from sickness and injuries. Nine of the turtles came from the New England Aquarium in Boston. They were sent to Georgia for release because of the warmer waters off the southern Atlantic coast.
