Over 200 sea turtles were being treated for hypothermia at the New England Aquarium’s Sea Turtle Hospital.
November marks the beginning of turtle stranding season due to the “rapidly changing water temperature and wind pattern,” the aquarium said.
The turtles undergo treatment for weeks or months before they’re released back into the ocean.

Hypothermia ? Sea turtle ? Rubbish
This what an alien abduction looks like, but for animals?🤣
Awww
are they facing hypothermia due to man's impact on the environment and this is why we spend hundreds of thousands probably millions every year to save turtles or is this something that is naturally occuring survival of the fittest type of event that we ate disrupting……… The species of man is the sickest atm. Yet we have no compassion for each other and seems to not be concerned with our own impending disaster
Bless them little turtles! 😊
Turtle saving is a hobby

Massachusetts will always love to help

According to the New England Aquarium's Sea Turtle Hospital, November marks the beginning of stranding season due to "rapidly changing water temperatures and wind patterns."
"These turtles are often critically ill and require a variety of medical treatments to ensure they have the best chance for survival," senior veterinarian Dr. Kathryn Tuxbury said in a statement to video licensing company Storyful.
The aquarium said that 214 sea turtles have been treated so far this season. Many of the turtles undergo weeks or months of treatment before they can be released back into the ocean.
