Nature Trust – FEE Malta introduced us to Em, a turtle with just three flippers who arrived at the rehabilitation centre back in June of 2021.
The juvenile loggerhead had an ingested hook stuck in the intestines and a badly entangled front flipper. Due to the cuts the flipper sustained by the entangled debris, infections took over, leading to unfortunate necessity of the flipper having to be amputated.
‘After months of medication, treatment, therapy and training by rehab volunteers, Em is now ready to go’, wrote the NGO.
‘As we try to Satellite track every amputated turtle in order to monitor its progress during the first months, Em now needs your help so we may collect the € 5000 required to purchase a tracker.’
‘Donations any CRS support are always welcome and can be sent by bank transfer or Revolut transfer on our Wildlife IBAN MT18 VALL 2201 3000 0000 4002 353 8289 , Swift code VALLMTMT.’
