Just in time for sea turtle mating season in the Florida Keys, a rehabilitated male loggerhead turtle was released Friday off Pigeon Key.
“Sheldon,” named by his U.S. Coast Guard rescuers, was discovered earlier this month near the Old Seven Mile Bridge. The 230-pound (105-kilogram) reptile was rehabilitated at the Keys-based Turtle Hospital after being found entangled in crab trap line.
