Jack and Apollo reach foraging areas

By Dean Bagley, UCF Marine Turtle Research Group

Hi everybody!

It looks as though our turtles are settling into their foraging areas. Apollo’s is still new to him, so there’s always the chance he might take off again, but for now, they are both in their happy places.

Jack has remained in the west side of the Boca Grande Channel, just southeast of the Marquesas.

Apollo has settled into an area just southeast of Boca Chica Key, just north of Key West.

We’ll continue to keep an eye on them. Unless they start to move again, I’ll be sending weekly updates, and from now on, just of their foraging areas.

As always, thank you again for making this possible, and for your continued interest in what our guys are doing!
