Hello All ! I spoke with Richie from The Turtle Hospital in Marathon today. He wanted me to express his thankfulness to the fellow turtle lovers who have been showing concern over the loggerheads. I asked him how we could help, and he said that they do not accept monetary donations, because they are not open to the public and a 501c3. He said that he just thanks us for the concern and to keep praying for them !
He gave the website address of the hospital, which gives information on not only the loggerheads condition, but other turtles that they have rescued.
Richie also owns "Hidden Harbor" motel and they donate some of their proceeds to the hospital! What a great guy! To think that it is run by volunteers is incredible. My vet, Dr Mader, who has his own practice, is the main vet there also.
Check out their website and let's do the one thing he asked, pray for the turtles and that they can find what is causing the sickness.
Thanks,
Christine aka Conch
