Description

The deep freeze in Texas is not only affecting Texans all over the state, but it's always affecting Sea Turtles. Animal rescuers made up of government scientists, organizations, and volunteers rescued 4,750 Green Sea Turtles that were affected by the deep freezing effects of the cold snap. The cold temperatures affect Sea Turtles as they can render them immobile. The Sea Turtles can't swim to the surface to get air and could eventually drown.  The efforts from everyone that participated in the rescue potential saved the population of Threatened Sea Turtles.  You can support those organizations at the links below: Sea Turtle Inc.: https://seaturtleinc.org/ Sea Turtle Island Restoration Network: https://seaturtles.org/ Link To Article: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-weather/article/Texans-stepping-up-to-rescue-a-record-breaking-15960798.php Want To Talk Oceans?
