Paws N' Claws with Mass Audubon Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary: Sea Turtle Conservation

Did you know we have a local sea turtle population, especially on the Cape and the South Shore? Did you also know that turtles get "cold stunned" when the ocean temperature drops below 55 degrees. In this week's Paws N' Claws segment we talked to Emeritus Sanctuary Director for the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary Bob Prescott and he explained the vital conservation efforts for the local sea turtles, what to do if you encounter a "cold stunned" sea turtle on the beach, and the efforts put forth by the Sea Turtle Hospital in Quincy to get our turtle friends through the winter unharmed.
