At least three dozen sea turtles are getting a little vacation under heat lamps in this spring-break capital after being rescued from an arctic blast that caused the water temperature in an arm of the Gulf of Mexico to plummet 18 degrees in 48 hours.
The cold-blooded animals were left comatose by the rapid temperature drop this week in the shallow bay where the young turtles feed.# posted by
