Field Notes

Description:

I'm not sure what species it it but i guess it is a Green turtle !

Habitat:

Found in open sea !

Notes:

This innocent turtle was found entangled in a left removed fishing net in the middle of the open sea, our guide had a keen eye and found it was in trouble ! We were able to release it from the net ,it didn't had its left flipper ,must have been injured earlier ! It was happy to swimming in the sea after releasing it .
