Turtle Rescued From Strangling Fishing Line

Occurred on October 16, 2023 / Miami, Florida, USA Info from Licensor: "While motoring down the beach in Key Biscayne, FL, we picked up a fishing line in our propeller. When we hopped in the water to check out the problem, we realized there was a turtle stuck on this fishing line. The turtle could barely breathe, being strangled on all appendages. We boarded the turtle, cut away the lines with our dive knives, and notified the Coast Guard on the radio, who sent over the the Fish & Wildlife Commission. We worked together with them and the turtle hospital to make sure there were no lacerations and the turtle was safe to release. My friends and I are local to these waters and we’re happy to help an animal in need."
