About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - An endangered green sea turtle is unloaded from a truck prior to its release into the waters of the Banana River at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Wildlife personnel and volunteers are releasing groups of the federally protected turtles after nearly 2,000 of the animals were "stunned" by prolonged cold temperatures. Many of the turtles were rescued from the Mosquito Lagoon, with others coming from the Indian River Lagoon and Cocoa Beach.
