Happy turtle-versary! Today marks 2 years since our fantastic flippered friends Sensa and Mabouche joined us here at The Deep and it's safe to say they have well and truly made themselves at home.
Both Sensa and Mabouche were rescued from the wild after being caught on fisherman’s long lines in the Mediterranean, which damaged their lower jaws. It was decided that they couldn’t go back into the wild as they wouldn’t be able to catch their own food and we are delighted to have been able to offer them their forever home.
You can see them in the Endless Ocean exhibit, often relaxing in the viewing tunnel 🐢
