YAY! This BABY GREEN TURTLE Survived The FLOODS And FATAL MICROPLASTICS
Meet Pretzel, the green turtle hatchling that miraculously survived both the NSW floods and fatal microplastic consumption. After washing up on New Brighton Beach, Pretzel was admitted to @byronbaywildlife Hospital, where marine scientist and animal doctor @siobhan_houlihan had to remove the microplastic by hand, saving the baby turtle! Pretzel’s story has a happy ending but there are thousands of animals still affected by the floods.
