BALLOONS and TURTLES don't mix
Discarded balloons drift into the water
and are mistaken for food by sea turtles and other marine animals.
Shackleford III was lucky to be able to pass these ingested pieces of balloons.
A Special THANKS to our many visitors.
Your interest and support assures our success
Your tax deductible contributions are much appreciated
