  Sea Turtle Tracking

  Students will become marine biologists as they “track” a sea turtle on its adventures across the Gulf of Mexico. During their sea turtle study, students will interpret their collected data, hypothesize why it might have traveled there and identify dangers it faced. Students will also meet the Aquarium’s resident sea turtles.
