All of the juvenile turtles at Maui Ocean Center were hatched Sea Life Park on O‘ahu as part of their Hawaiian green sea turtle Educational Loan Program. When the juveniles reach ages of 2-3 years we release them to the ocean and receive a new group of turtle hatchlings to continue the educational outreach program. Earlier this month, we released Turtle E (Nīele ) and Turtle F (Kekoa). Track the turtles by going to ocearch.org/profile/niele or ocearch.org/profile/kekoa! Mahalo to OCEARCH and all others for making the tracking of these turtles possible.
