Thousands of cold-stunned turtles were rescued as temperatures dropped to record lows in Texas this month. Now they are being returned to Gulf of Mexico.
Sea turtles are vulnerable to cold waters, which hinders their movement.
"They'll drown in the water if not rescued," said Wendy Knight of the non-profit Sea Turtle Inc.

Lt Col Charlie Brown Quite a Calling! Rescuing Sea Turtles, I Will Never forget swimming with them on Dodge. Watching them Give Birth on Dodge, Watching the Hatchlings Return to the Sea! I'm Sure That ROPOs "Royal Police" Know of a Sailor that Ran into their HQ to Completely Out of Breath to Help Him Save a Turtle Entangled in a Mound of Fishing Nets. Thank God for ROPO1 (Chief of Police) and ROPO2 for the Assistance they Provided Me!
