Turtle Rehab

This interactive was made by a classmate, Kasha Patel, and me for a large multimedia project by our entire class on BU News Service, Stranded. The project is about the annual sea turtle cold-stunning off Cape Cod and how the Massachusetts Audubon and New England Aquarium rescue hypothermic sea turtles, nurse them back to health and release them back into warmer waters. This Prezi illustrates some simple things that the biologists and doctors at the Aquarium do to get the turtles healthy again.
