Sharing an Interesting story - A Loggerhead Sea Turtle!

This wee girl was brought into the Centre last week by a compassionate French tourist.

She had been washed ashore on a local beach and was in very poor condition (Wound on her flipper, was hypothermic, not eating and was very sad, lethargic and slow). Unfortunately she was beyond saving and passed away not long after being admitted.

If you discover a sea turtle washed ashore, its important to contact the Department of Conservation ASAP to seek the best advice. Turtles found on Southland beaches are typically severely cold-shocked, dehydrated, or suffering from plastic ingestion. Beaching themselves is usually a last-ditch effort to prevent drowning and returning the turtle to the water can be fatal.

***UPDATE***
Thanks everyone who showed interest in adopting Peggy.
She has gone home today to her new family.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Peggy was introduced to us on Good Friday, after being rescued from the wilderness by a member of the public. As kitten living in the wilds, Peggy had somehow suffered a life altering wound and ended up loosing one of her back paws! (We think she was either caught in a trap, or tussled with a dog).

After some surgery and TLC by the team, Peggy is now a bright, active and very loving 3 legged kitty who would like to find a loving new home.

If you are interested in meeting Peggy or would like more information, please contact us on 032144156 or email [email protected]
