So far this winter, more than 9,400 cold stunned turtles have been recorded in Texas, with over 3,659 found in the Upper Laguna Madre.
Thank you to many concerned private citizens who have rescued cold stunned turtles and to staff and volunteers from the National Park Service, ARK, Sea World San Antonio, Texas State Aquarium, Texas Sea Life Center, Texas A&M University-Galveston, Houston Zoo, NOAA-Fisheries, Sea Turtle, Inc., Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Texas General Land Office, Texas Master Naturalist, Gladys Porter Zoo, University of Texas, Mission-Aransas Estuarine Research Reserve, Sea Tow, CCA, Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program, Keep Aransas County Beautiful, and other organizations for their help with efforts to find, document, rehabilitate, and release cold stunned turtles on the Texas coast.
We are requesting that anyone working or recreating in our Texas bays, channels or passes please be vigilant for cold stunned turtles and report any that they see by calling 1-866-TURTLE5. If you are on the Upper Laguna Madre/Corpus Christi Bay, please call 1 (361) 949-8173, ext. 226. We will provide further directions to you after we receive the report.
