Marine Animal Rehabilitation Center noted in Smithsonian Magazine and Our Net News

The Â鶹´«Ã½'s Marine Animal Rehabilitation Center (MARC) was noted in a May 2010 feature story on rescuing endangered turtles from Cape Cod beaches. Writer Amy Sutherland was on hand in Cape Cod in October 2009 as volunteers rescued cold-stunned turtles from the beaches. Seventeen of the 85 rescued turtles were finally transported to Â鶹´«Ã½for rehabilitation. The turtle that writer Sutherland rescued was named "Voyageurs," and it is a current patient at MARC (see photo at right). The story appears online with a video of a turtle release on July 30, 2008 at Dowses Beach in Osterville, Cape Cod, Mass., a release in which MARC staff participated. MARC was also noted in a video on posted April 18, 2010. The video shows the release of three sea turtles by the Georgia Sea Turtle Center. The Kemps ridley turtle Kneivel was rehabilitated at MARC.
