@thenationalaq: He arrived covered in barnacles — skinny, exhausted, and in need of urgent help. After a full barnacle removal, he’s already feeling lighter and on the road to recovery. 💙 If you ever see a turtle in trouble, please contact us anytime. Your call can save a life. Come visit us at The National Aquarium to meet our rescued sea turtles as they recover before being released back into the ocean. 🌊 #SeaTurtleRescue #TheNationalAquarium #MarineConservation #RescueRehabRelease #abudhabi
