About Perry
Humanely Euthanized

Species:

Juvenile Green (Chelonia mydas) (CM25-38)

Perry had a blood patch procedure Thursday to see if we could plug a possible tear in the lungs. He is still swimming on his side intermittently, so we are continuing to use weights on his carapace. Currently on antibiotics.
