Satellite Tracked Sea Turtles

Patient Tracking

The Florida Aquarium believes that our sea turtle rehabilitation efforts do not end when our patients are ready for release. We strive to ensure that they are able to thrive after their reintroduction to the open water. One way we do this is by monitoring post-release behavior via a satellite tracking tag that is attached to their shell. These tags provide critically important information about diving, feeding, migratory and activity patterns all while recording environmental data such as water temperatures. This data allows us to better understand post-recovery behavioral patterns and provides key insight for future rehabilitation and conservation efforts.

Meet our current and formerly rehabbed sea turtles and track their locations below!
