The main responsibility of this role is running the sea turtle rehabilitation centre. Daily work includes general turtle husbandry; feeding, cleaning tanks, cleaning patients, etc. Many of our turtle patients have buoyancy issues as a result of entanglement in marine debris. By taking them on sea swims, trying weight therapy methods, and utilising various feeding strategies to encourage diving, we hope to rehabilitate and release them in the near future. Fundraising is currently essential in this role, as an NGO who relies on volunteers, we have lost the main source of our funding due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Show less
