Talk about a glow-up! In 2021, officers from the Chinese Coast Guard spotted two injured green sea turtles during a routine patrol in the South China Sea. 🚤 The crew swiftly brought the turtles to the Beidao Sea Turtle Protection Station, where marine biologists nursed them back to health. Fast-forward 16 months, and these resilient reptiles finally swam free again in their ocean home! 🌏
This heartwarming rescue highlights China's growing efforts to protect endangered marine life. Green sea turtles, classified as endangered by the IUCN, face threats like plastic pollution and habitat loss. The collaboration between the Coast Guard and conservationists shows how teamwork can turn the tide for wildlife. 🦸♂️🦸♀️
