MARATHON, FLA. (WSVN) - A sea turtle received some much-needed help from a U.S. Coast Guard crew off the Florida Keys.
In a tweet posted Sunday afternoon, Coast Guard officials said their crews teamed up with The Turtle Hospital to rescue the 300-pound loggerhead.
The marine reptile has since been named Sheldon.
Officials said the animal suffered some minor injuries but is otherwise healthy.
