LOGGERHEAD CONSERVATION HABITAT
These two survivors didn't make the initial trek to the ocean and came to us following nest excavations on Carolina Beach and Fort Fisher. The North Carolina Aquariums (NCA) veterinary team cleared the hatchlings to serve as ambassadors for sea turtle conservation in the loggerhead habitat. Find our more at Meet Pip & Scout.
FAREWELL TO HATCH & JOURNEY
The NCA veterinary team examined Hatch and Journey, the two loggerhead sea turtle yearlings who have been with us since fall 2021, and they were cleared for release to the ocean. Beloved by visitors, volunteers and staff, Hatch and Journey were amazing ambassadors for conservation of our oceans.
