Will FeeBee and Milton Stay Together?

Thursday morning at the shoreline of the Indian River Lagoon, friends said goodbye to FeeBee and Milton. Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, will monitor the female and male turtles. Since they have grown up together in the same tank, it will be interesting to see if they stay together now that they have been released. They can also choose to hang around the lagoon or migrate back into the ocean. The transmitters on their shells sends a message to a satellite each time they come to the surface to breathe. View the turtles' paths, starting in about two weeks, at seaturtle.org.
