Mote Marine Expands Fleet

Business

The animal rescue and recovery team at Mote Marine Laboratory recently received funding from the Sea Turtle Grants Program to purchase a new boat that will enhance Mote’s response to distressed marine wildlife and enable new research about the threats they face. Between 2003 and 2013, Mote responded to 697 sea turtles — the most common stranded marine animals locally — and 30 percent of cases during the past year required a marine vessel.
