THE STRANDING Found in a pound net in Core Sound by NMFS biologist  Lisa Goshe.  The turtle has wounds consistent with a boat propeller strike. They are healing but some soft tissue is exposed.  There is also some trauma/bleeding to the eyes and a large wound on the neck.
THE TREATMENT



MAY 2006 Stacy III has had a good year.  Last summer her wounds received daily attention, keeping them clean and covered with antibiotic cream.  Today she is healthy and looking good.  If she passes her physical this month, she will go home this summer.
