SEAWORLD RELEASES ENDANGERED TURTLE HATCHLINGS (August 31, 2009) Juno Beach, Florida
SeaWorld Orlando animal care expert, Jenny Albert, releases endangered loggerhead sea turtle hatchlings off the coast of Juno Beach, Fla.  The young sea turtles are completing a 12-day odyssey that began when they were transported to SeaWorld Orlando after rough seas from Hurricane Bill kept them from making their trek from their nest on the beach to the waters off Cape Canaveral.
SeaWorld partnered with the Loggerhead Marinelife Center of Juno Beach for the release.
