Tracking Turtles… Where are Redfoot and Spencer?
Redfoot
Dean Bagley says she doesn’t “have a clue what Redfoot is doing. The pattern looks more like foraging, except that he’s now come in and is practically on shore” as of July 20th. This is “something usually seen during the mating season.” Dean also shares that Redfoot has been frequenting a reef 2.4 km off John D. MacArthur State Park.
