Voxy, a male loggerhead sea turtle, crawled back into the ocean on Thursday at Loggerhead Park in Juno Beach. Voxy was released by Loggerhead Marinelife Center after sucessful rehabilitation. On April 18 biologists at the Florida Power and Light Plant in St. Lucie County took Voxy to LMC after he was found underweight and anemic.
A diet of vitamins and high-calorie foods helped Voxy to gain enough strength to be returned to the Atlantic Ocean.
