1:56Maxine MontelloGUEST
Uh, you know, there's a lot of, uh, underground kind of information about are rehab turtles or rehab seals actually equivalent to their wild counterparts.

Um, and so our main job is to show that these animals that we give a second chance to are wild animals.
M
2:11Maxine MontelloGUEST
Uh, so a lot of my research is actually using advanced technology like telemetry devices to place on these animals, and we get this live tracking of where they go.
M
2:21Maxine MontelloGUEST
Um, and that helps us here locally in New York to show where they're utilizing.
M
2:25Maxine MontelloGUEST
Um, a lot of our turtles go straight back into our bays and hang out here all summer long, and then where they go afterwards because it's not just New York marine mammals and sea turtles, it's actually the greater Atlantic and this Atlantic Ocean population that we're able to study.
