Ozzy A Sea Turtle's Journey Home

In the last episode you saw Ozzy the loggerhead sea turtle's rescue and rehab journey. Now, see Ozzy's release and learn about the satellite sea turtle tracker used for the first time in CMA history! Ozzy was our first sea turtle released with a satellite tag. The last day we have her tracked is on January 22, 2016, off the coast of North Carolina. We believe that Ozzy’s tag has either fallen off, or has become biofouled. Biofouling is the growth of organisms, algae and barnacles on a wet surface. Four months is the average life span of a tracker, so we were pleased with the results we received from Ozzy’s journey.
