Springsteen's Remarkable Journey: From Rescue to Recovery
Turtle release
Meet Springsteen the gopher tortoise, rescued on April 3, 2023. Springsteen's journey to recovery began with a veterinary assessment that revealed shell fractures likely caused by vehicular trauma. Throughout the time in our care, the rescue team lovingly dubbed her "Springsteen." With the unwavering dedication of our veterinary and rescue team, Springsteen underwent shell repair surgery and received specialized hardware to aid in the healing process. After four months of wound care and rehabilitation, we're thrilled to announce that Springsteen has made a remarkable recovery. With the hardware removed, she was medically cleared for a return to the wild. This showcases the extraordinary efforts of our rescue team here at SeaWorld. Thank you, Pass Members, for being a part of our mission to protect and preserve.
