When an injured wild animal is rehabilitated and released back into its habitat, it is a very exciting moment. Join Green Jenine on a visit to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center in Juno Beach, Florida and witness the release of a sub-adult loggerhead sea turtle named Twain. Our video features an interview with the coordinator of the center’s hospital, Melissa Ranly. Watch as a staff member and volunteers work together to prepare the turtle for its return to the ocean and see him swim back out into the Atlantic as spectators cheer!
