This was in sunny #keybiscayne today, about 2 hours BEFORE high tide. The southeast coast of Florida was spared this week, and even though Ian is long gone, the King Tide cycles will continue, slowly washing away our shorelines. #realnews

Who knows how long this bundle of death traps had

Who knows how long this bundle of death traps had been drifting untethered off our shoreline? Marine #wildlife like #seabirds, #manatees, and #turtles are defenseless vs. derelict #ghostgear.
*
On this day, we permanently removed 310 lbs. of #marinedebris from our #ocean in less than 20 minutes.

REPOST: @rodolforojas_ You’ll never believe what happened next…

This occurred 06/20/22 but I was reluctant to post it. Honestly it’s strange to receive praise or backlash for something that should be done regardless… if you see an animal in distress please help it. I share this now because the day before yesterday 09/24/22 I came across an even younger turtle in the same scenario. This one was bound by its neck to a hooked nylon line. Unfortunately I wasn’t there in time… 😔

I was driving the boat in idle and all of a sudden my handle got snagged… I stopped the engine immediately to get a closer look and seconds later I noticed splashing at the end of it. I jumped in with my goggles and to my surprise there was a sea turtle wrapped in a fixed line. We decided to help an animal in distress. I was able to untangle the wakeboard rope from the anchored line and cut it loose but the remainder was tightly wrapped around its neck and arms. We safely and slowly brought the turtle to the platform in order to carefully remove the binds. I was amazed how calm the turtle was throughout the process… it must have known we were there to help.

Thanks for the extra hand 🙏- @mohammedbajeri / 🎥: @raeefkabbani !
