A new resident arrived at the Sea Turtle Clinic Moorea on Saturday June 1st. Tuffy is a young green turtle (8 kg for 45 cm) found in the lagoon of Tikehau. Injured by spear gun at the neck, with multiple wounds on the head and the shell, she is now the subject of veterinary cares until the time she will feel better. The team Te mana o te moana wishes to thank all the people who help us to bring Tuffy over to the clinic : The Ninamu Resort, Chris O Callaghan who found the turtle, the Department of Environment which coordinated transportation and provided the necessary permits, Air Tahiti for the transport of the turtle under the partnership agreement with Te mana o te moana and the ecological center of Le Meridien Bora Bora.
