Spock Stranded June 4, 2020

The HBTP Stranding Team was called out Thursday June 4, 2020 for a turtle that seemed to be floundering in the water on the east end of the island. This turtle ---that they've named SPOCK ---was taken to the Turtle Hospital near Topsail Island. Reports are that SPOCK has a long road ahead of him. He tends to be a picky eater, likes filleted mackerel..but he did eat over the weekend after stranding and they are working to get him to eat.
