Green sea turtle, west Auckland

Postby Neil Fitzgerald » Thu Sep 16, 2021 9:52 am

A green sea turtle was reported on a west coast beach and taken to Auckland Zoo this month. https://inaturalist.nz/observations/94909000
The date and location are obscured by default for endangered species like this, but the location was somewhere from about Piha to Muriwai.
