BUBBLE BUTT

Bubble Butt is an adult male Green Sea Turtle. He was a victim of a boat strike and can no longer dive - hence the name 'bubble butt'.

Say NO to plastic

Did you know that 50% of the world's plastic is only used once? By cutting down on straws, coffee cups, bottles and bags, we can prevent over 100,000 sea mammals from eating or getting tangled up in plastic waste every year.
