Six Rare Turtles Blown Off Course Are Returned to Original Habitat Thanks to Royal Navy

The 6 loggerhead sea turtles were blown off course by a storm before being stunned into lethargy by the cold North Atlantic waters.

Rescued by members of two local marine sanctuaries who nursed them back to health.

They couldn't be released back into the North Atlantic , but neither of the aquariums had the resources to transport them intercontinentally.
