Molly the Sea Turtle
There are stories that quietly remind us that healing is possible even when the odds feel immense.
Molly, a loggerhead sea turtle, was found off the shore of the Florida Keys deeply entangled and weighed down by barnacles and a tumor that was more than ten pounds in her world of salt and sea. She could barely swim.
At The Turtle Hospital in the Florida Keys she received care, surgeries, nourishment, and time to regain her strength. When she was ready, she was carried back to the edge of the ocean and given her moment of release. A small tag now moves with her gentle path through the water, tracing the next chapter of her life.
There is something sacred in witnessing a life return to the place it belongs. Not because it is simple, not because it is easy, but because someone cared enough to help. Someone made space for healing, and watched her go home again.
You can read her story and learn more here Molly the Sea Turtle rescue and release at The Turtle Hospital website. Or watch the video on The Dodo here. 🐢
Have you ever witnessed a rescue story that stayed with you? I would love to hear about it.
