Sea Turtle Got Rescued from Fisherman's Snare

Sea Turtle Conservation Center "Kurma Asih" and ProFauna Indonesia rescued an Olive Ridley Sea Turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) who accidentally got caught on a fisherman's snare in the waters of Bali (21/5/2013). The poor sea turtle was evacuated to the conservation center in Perancak, Bali. Due to his feeble condition, currently he is put under an intensive care from Kurma Asih and ProFauna. Once he recovers, he will be released into the ocean.
