Sranded #3 live Green Sea Turtle

 A call coming from the Sea Turtle Dispatch about a stranded Sea Turtle in North Myrtle Beach in the early morning hours.

While the exact location was a little hard to find as the caller was unfamiliar with the area, soon the location known, as the NMB Ocean Rescue and NMB STP Volunteer Donna had arrived.

After this sea Turtle was determined to be a live stranding, calls were quickly made and transport under very specific guidelines to the Sea Turtle Hospital in Charleston SC.

Very best wishes for Biscuit as he/she is in great care of the Sea Turtle Hospital in Charleston. Many thanks to Donna and NMB Ocean Rescue.
