Jack, a male green sea turtle outfitted with a satellite transmitter, continues to stay in the same area as recent weeks.

Jack is still in his new area out in the middle of nowhere. He seems to like it, and I’m hoping there is no reef to knock off his transmitter. I’m sending two maps so you can see where he is relative to the Keys, and then one that’s close up. His last location is immediately to the left of the date and time.

Apollo remains in the same foraging area off Boca Chica Naval Air Base. It is apparently a good spot. His most recent location is immediately to the right of the date and time.
