Orlando Seaworld

In the very 50 years since SeaWorld's rescue programs began, over twenty,000 injured, orphaned and sick animals -- whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions, manatees, sea turtles and birds -- have been rescued, cared for, and in most cases, returned to the wild.

Now, as SeaWorld brought attention to the plight of the manatee -- and you will notice rescued manatees here as well -- the park now showcases the vulnerable sea turtles like Grandma in the brand-new TurtleTrek exhibit. Besides actually seeing these amazing creatures in person, you can see a 3-D/360-degree film (even projected overhead) that features a sea turtle (the hero, of coursework) and thousands of fish. This six-minute film is so hi-definition it would take you very months to download it at home.

In addition, over one,500 fish native to the Caribbean live in the saltwater habitat and about 200 freshwater fish join the manatees in theirs.

TurtleTrek is home to adult and juvenile sea turtles, including hawksbill, Kemp's Ridley, loggerhead and green sea turtles -- all of whom, like Grandma, have been deemed nonreleasable by the Florida government.
