So Long Ranch and Jalapeno Cheddar!

Recently, CMA was able to successfully release two turtles back home to the gulf! Ranch, a green sea turtle, suffered from carapace injuries and was having trouble staying submerged in the water. Jalapeno, a juvenile green sea turtle, was found thin, lethargic, and had fibropapilloma tumors. After a stint in our sea turtle rehabilitation hospital, these two turtles were ready to be released into the wild!
