Aquarium of the Pacific opens new sea turtle rehabilitation area
For the first time, visitors at the Aquarium of the Pacific will be able to see rescued sea turtles as they go through rehabilitation for an eventual return to their natural habitat.
The aquarium celebrated the grand opening of its new sea turtle rehabilitation area on Wednesday, Jan. 28. The new area, located next to the aquarium’s Molina Animal Care Center, will play a crucial role in supporting existing turtle rescue and rehabilitation efforts that have been ongoing there since 2000.
