We were happy to present grant funds to Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons. Our funds will be used to support their new native turtle Physical Therapy Trauma Treatment Program. The majority of turtle trauma is sustained to their heads and shells. Immediate treatment through the new Program is key to a full recovery and eventual return to their native habitats. Turtles are depended on in the eco system. They are organisms that reflect the environmental conditions of their surroundings. They disperse seeds and fertilize through their digestion as well as producing nitrogen and phosphorous. They also are part of nature’s cleanup crew, eating dead fish and plants, cleaning the water of bacteria.
