The Bermuda Tourism Authority has released a video highlighting the successful rehabilitation of a sea turtle named ‘Bridget’, with the video also providing tips on how to help if you find an injured turtle.

BTA Director of Public & Stakeholder Glenn Jones said “At the Bermuda Tourism Authority we are constantly contemplating the delicate balance between recreation and wildlife.

“And that reality presented itself in the form of a sea turtle last October. The lessons learned will be long-lasting for our team at the BTA and for 7 year-old Aerial Williams.

“We thought it would be a good idea to document what happened in a short video and share it with the public in an effort to protect our precious wildlife and celebrate the 50 years of great work by the Bermuda Turtle Project.”
