Saving sea turtles

Over the past month, 21 cold-stunned sea turtles were recovered along Long Island's shoreline. The eight that survived are at the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said that 361 cold-stunned sea turtles have turned up in the Greater Atlantic Region so far this season. The majority of them are the critically endangered Kemp's Ridley sea turtles. They're unable to swim out of the area in time and succumb to hypothermia.
