This sea turtle was floating in the Bay not far from our landing spot. Together we towed him into the beach for pickup by the Science Center. He had not been dead very long. He had obvious cracks in his shell from being hit by most likely a boat. He was a beautiful old guy!

We pulled this "Old Man of the Sea" in after he was obviously hit by a boat and had a badly cracked shell. Unfortunately, it was too late and he was already dead. I'm sure he was old as he was at least 200+ pounds.
